“Gov. Newsom was riding very high about 10 months ago,” said Loyola Law School professor Jessica Levinson. “Now, the picture looks very different. He does look, in some ways, vulnerable.”
Levinson says Gov. Newsom is facing a two-front battle against progressives who feel he hasn’t gone enough in his COVID-19 response. Republicans and Independents, on the other hand, feel he’s gone to far.
“I think that Gov. Newsom knows he’s going to face a recall election,” Levinson said. “I think there are absolutely going to be enough ballot signatures and nobody wants to go through that. So yes, I think he has become in a lot of ways, more outward-facing, we see him traveling around the state. We see him having meetings that do look somewhat governmental, and somewhat political in the sense it’s campaign-style.”
