California Gov. Gavin Newsom is pointing to his victory in Tuesday’s recall election as evidence that voters want Democrats to pursue more stringent measures to combat the coronavirus pandemic.
Asked in an interview with CBS News what his recall win means for Democrats, Newsom said it proved “that we need to stiffen our spines and lean in to keeping people safe and healthy.”
“Don't be timid. Lean in,” he said. “Because at the end of the day, it's not just about formal authority of setting the tone and tenor on masks — on vaccines and masks. But it's the moral authority that we have: that we're on the right side of history and we're doing the right thing to save people's lives.

The “win” shows you cheated. They did not get that many signatures for a recall by accident
This will most definitely carry over to the federal government. Be prepared for more mandates and authoritarianism.
I’m done arguing facts, figures etc regarding Covid and [now] simply urging those about government over reach, the coming collapse and if people are good with mandates, papers, etc.
To my surprise most people are okay with these things. Finding those that agree with you regarding freedom is my goal at this point and to brainstorm how to get through the coming hard times.
IOW: Good and hard.
The Revenge Tour is just getting started. California is gonna get what they wanted. Hard.
Stiffen your spine and we the people will lock and load
It only takes 12% of the last election vote count to trigger a recount.
Kalifornia is a cesspool. That’s it.
The first thing I thought after failed recall,
babblin' biden's posse will take advantage.
Meanwhile 1 in 300 die in car accidents every year
Now that it been put in context, anyone really think we need to eliminate civil liberties and wreck our economy because of Covid?
Agree with you. Just tired…
What evidence do you have of this? I see none. Zip. Zero. Nada.
It's coming, soon enough...
Bottom line... it’s NOT a mandate if you cheated to win!!
I might just have to speed up my retirement plans
No, Gavin... It shows how stupid Californians are.
Cheating and illegal behind the scene counting won. Theft of election happened again.
That will be part of the green (global warming) mandates.
“But it’s the moral authority that we have: that” ... real people’s votes don’t matter at all any more, and as long as we have force on our side we are now kings.
