California Recall Could Boost Gov. Newsom's Clout for 2022

The recall election that once threatened to derail California Gov. Gavin Newsom's political future has instead given it new life, offering a rare midterm vote of confidence that could fuel an ambitious legislative agenda featuring new coronavirus vaccine mandates, housing for the homeless and health insurance for people living in the country illegally.

Nearly 64% of voters in the recall election voted to keep Newsom in office, according to early returns, giving him a larger margin of victory so far compared to his 2018 election.

On Wednesday, one day after surviving the recall that a few months ago had him sweating, Newsom indicated he planned to go even bigger in 2022 as he heads into his reelection campaign.

The RATs really packed in the fake votes to give Gruesome this ‘mandate’. He might have won in an honest election anyway but California is way beyond that.

When your side can make 350 thousand votes dissappear and no one cares, it does strengthen your position for the next "election". As good citizens, we are supposed to believe the "fact checkers" who show these are "corrections" to human error. That the fact checkers never notice that such corrections only benefit Democrats and never help Republicans is because they know the facts and we don't.

I would agree with you...somehow...Newsom ends up as Feinstein’s replacement, and in 2024...probably attempts a run as President. He’s probably one of the least qualified people ever...for public office of any type.

I’m curious if the hens’ support for Newsom exceeded 80%.

That’s just the point, they DON’T realize their mistake. They don’t like the results of their mistake, but can’t puzzle out cause and effect, so repeat it.
