Shock (?) Poll: A Majority of Likely Voters Say They Intend to Vote Gavin Newsom Out of OfficeRemember, we just had two polls showing the "Recall" side within the margin of error of beating the "Keep" side. A new poll suggests that they might have missed out on some angry voters. Or, perhaps, that there's been a preference cascade as people realized they really could be rid of Gavin Newsom forever. So this poll finds that 51% would recall Newsom. Doesn't sound like a big lead-- except that the "Keep" side gets only 40%. 11 point lead. More than half of likely voters in California say they would vote to recall Gov. Gavin Newsom next month, according to a statewide survey released Wednesday. It might be too early to get a good bead on who'd get elected if Newsom is recalled, especially because 20% of the voters are undecided. But a Democrat leads the field at 27%, followed not too far behind by Larry Elder at 23%. A raft of Republicans split a lot of the vote. And what is the "best reason" for recalling Newsom? Covid, covid, covid. "Covid restrictions" is the best reason for recall cited by 34%, but a bunch of people also name "closure of businesses" and "closure of schools" as reasons. "Party during lockdown," I believe, refers to Gavin Newsom attending an unmasked birthday party with medical lobbyist "friends" while he had the whole state shut down. So that's a lot of covid-lockdown-related matters driving this. "Use of joblessness funds" is also a covid-related concern, though indirectly. California's Department of Unemployment has been slow in getting out payments for joblessness during the lockdowns. And while it hasn't been getting out payments for legitimate claims, it has been paying out billions in fraudulent claims. California's unemployment department has consistently been one of Gov. Gavin Newsom's biggest political liabilities during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hundreds of thousands of jobless residents' claims have been backlogged for weeks at a time even as EDD paid out an estimated $31 billion in fraudulent claims, including $1 billion to prison and jail inmates. With account freezes, jammed phone lines and pervasive tech glitches blocking unemployed Californians from the funds they needed to stay afloat, many called their lawmakers for help, desperate and even on the brink of suicide. Interestingly, Latinos support recalling him: Among Latinos, recall supporters outpaced opponents 47 percent to 41 percent; and 56 percent of Whites said they would vote to recall the governor while 35 percent said they opposed replacing Newsom. Let's hope. | Recent Comments
