California’s Newsom votes as recall against him nears end

Associated Press  

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California Gov. The effort originated among amateur Republican political organizers upset with Newsom’s policies on immigration, crime and taxes, but gained steam amid the pandemic as Newsom ordered restrictions on businesses and mandated masks. “I believe that there might very well be shenanigans, as there were in the 2020 election,” he said, referring to former President Donald Trump’s unsupported claims of fraud in his loss to Joe Biden. Newsom criticized those claims, saying “we’re four days out, the election hasn’t even happened and now they’re all feigning election fraud. And I think it’s important to highlight that.” Asked if he would accept the results of the election if he loses, Newsom said he planned to win but would respect the will of the voters.
