Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Tone Deaf Email to ‘Stop the Republican Recall’ Insults Ca Voters
31.5% of the recall signers were ‘other than Republicans, showing that this is a bipartisan event

California Gov. Gavin Newsom is facing a recall election this fall. This week, the RecallGavin2020 campaign turned in more than 2.1 signature petitions to recall the governor. Almost immediately, Newsom launched a campaign to fight the recall, calling it a “partisan, Republican recall — backed by the RNC, anti-mask and anti-vax extremists, and pro-Trump forces.”
The Newsom “Stop the Republican Recall” campaign sent out this mass email Friday proving just how tone deaf he is, insulting millions of California voters. Several CA Globe readers received the email and shared it with us:
“I am writing to let you know that earlier this week, we launched our campaign to stop the Republican recall attempt in California. I am not going to take this recall attempt lying down. I’m going to fight because there’s too much at stake in this moment.
And today, I am asking you to join me:
Please add your name to say you oppose the far-right Republican recall effort in California. It is critical you make your voice heard from the start of this effort.
First and foremost, I need you to know I am not going to be distracted from the critical work we have to move us forward in California. That means getting more vaccines in people’s arms, more people back to work, and more kids back in the classroom.
But that means I need your help defeating this recall effort.
And let’s call it what it is: it’s a partisan, Republican recall — backed by the RNC, anti-mask and anti-vax extremists, and pro-Trump forces who want to overturn the last election and have opposed much of what we have done to fight the pandemic.
If they are successful, it would mean risking the progress we are making to end the pandemic. We can’t let that happen.
California cannot afford to be sidetracked by partisan political games. So we’ll fight this recall for the reason I am fighting to get every Californian vaccinated — because ending this pandemic as quickly as possible is too important to get delayed by Trump loyalists and far right-wing Republicans.
But I cannot do that alone.
Add your name: say you oppose the Republican recall effort in California. This is important.
Thank you for joining me in this effort. It means a lot to know that we’re in this together.
All my best,
Gavin
There is only one way we defeat the far-right Republican recall effort in California — and that is together. Say you’re with Gavin:
Add your name to say you oppose the Republican recall in California.

As the Globe reported, The recall campaign did a study on a sampling of 20,000 of the recall signatures to see what the political party breakdown was. Recall campaign organizer Orrin Heatlie said 31.5% of the signers were “other than Republicans,” showing that this is a bipartisan event.
Voters Know CA Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Troubles Began Before Pandemic: Newsom still doesn’t understand that the RecallGavin2020 is a movement now.
A friend who received Gov. Newsom’s email said this:
“But honestly, it’s not only COVID that brought me to sign the recall petition. It’s the fires, the releasing of inmates, and allowing healthcare for all the illegals (we have many friends that have immigrated here LEGALLY… what a slap in the face to them). Then add COVID on to that and he should be gone.”

HA HA! Vintage Gavin.
Which of his quotes from the email was the most preposterous? Really hard to say, because they were ALL preposterous, but I kinda liked:
“….I am not going to be distracted from the critical work we have to move us forward in California. That means getting more vaccines in people’s arms, more people back to work, and more kids back in the classroom.”
Good one! That’s a keeper.
By the way, Gov Newsom, the desperate-sounding right-wing anti-vaxxer wing-nut stuff has been used and debunked a thousand times, yawn. Might want to think about getting a newer, fresher name-calling script.
C’mon, Doofus Newsom is just repeating the DNC talking point script that he and Jared Polis in Colorado have been using in parallel…
It’s almost comical how these trained Democrat monkeys repeat their talking point scripts reflexively, and how LOST they seem without their “Orange Man Bad” theme…
Many of us Love him, his endless service, his saving many lives, his devotion to our state, and we are many. You see we too speak,” Where one goes, we All go. Team Blue.
I’m not a Republican. I signed it because I”m sick too death of the insane crap being pushed out by the capital. The shutting down of Pismo Beach’s off-road vehicle park being the most recent example.
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Hey hey hey, goodbye!
Newsom said in the e-mail that the recall is supported by “anti-mask extremists”. Isn’t he an “anti-mask extremist”? I could have sworn that I saw a picture of him recently at a restaurant in Napa with other “anti-mask extremists”. Maybe Newsom is also a white supremacist and a member of Qanon?
Exactly. Ha.
Keep insulting the voters. That should help keep your job. 😉
Yes, brilliant move. Plus he is insulting a lot of his OWN voters.
Nero fiddles, Rome burns.
He will be recalled, but will we replace him with someone strong enough to lead the turn-around of California? We also need to replace most of the members of the legislature, so need a new Republican to lead a large group of candidates to victory.
Stephen, unfortunately when the Democrats are in control of California, handing out free sh…t to the undeserving and encouraging illegals to pour into the state to get their free sh…t and voting rights, the only thing you can hope for is a less corrupted and less stupid Democrat.
The only way Newsom can defeat our grassroots, bipartisan recall effort is by a corrupted election.
Let’s finish the recall effort with an energized, well communicated and overwhelming vote to recall.
#recallgavin2020
YES, YES!
Gotta insure we don’t get Dominioned….again….
