With recall defeated, Newsom scores well in poll against 2022 rivals

LA Times  

Gavin Newsom waves to the crowd after appearing with President Biden during an antirecall campaign event at Long Beach City College on Monday. Newsom would easily beat any of the four top Republicans who were in the running to replace him, including the GOP candidate who fared best, conservative talk show host Larry Elder, according to a newly released UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies poll co The poll found that 52% of registered voters said they would support Newsom in a head-to-head matchup with Elder, while 30% would back the Republican. In the head-to-head matchups against Newsom, Elder’s support among Republican voters outpaced all the other GOP candidates by roughly 10%, the poll found. “They’re more likely to support Elder than any of the others.” In Tuesday’s election, more than 63% of California voters opposed recalling Newsom from office while 36% favored removing him. “He kept on saying things that just didn’t make any sense if you actually wanted to become governor.” If Elder runs for governor in 2022 and faces off with Newsom in the November general election, it could be disastrous for Republicans, Nehring said.
