Hopefully — hopefully! — the massive number of mail-in ballots that counties have already begun processing will yield results Tuesday night that will put this recall to bed, one way or another... but more than likely one way.

The polls show Newsom surviving the recall, but a bizarrely timed mid-September election and an unmotivated Democratic base could easily swing this thing to some nobody Republican with miniscule support.

With one month left before California votes on whether or not to recall Governor Gavin Newsom, and days before people start receiving their mail-in ballots — if you haven't received yours already — Newsom is doing a four-day campaign tour encouraging voters to "Vote No."

The Delta variant, and the fact that millions of Californians are now once again being told they have to wear masks indoors at all times amid a new surge in cases statewide, presents a challenge for Governor Gavin Newsom as he tries to sell his leadership skills to a weary public.

A poll finds that "likely" voters in the September recall are nearly evenly split on recalling Newsom, and now he's getting tough in his talk trying to motivate voters by comparing the Republicans behind the recall to those pushing vaccine misinformation.

We don’t know when there will be a recall election, but we now know there will indeed be a recall election, as the pro-recall crowd has validated 1.6 million of the necessary 1.4 million signatures.
