Sacramento, CA…The official recall effort against California Governor Gavin Newsom reached a major milestone on Thursday (Dec 10, 2020) when they were notified by California Secretary of State Alex Padilla that they have collected and met the 10 percent threshold of signatures requirement per state election code. This now mandates that registrar recorder officials in every county in California must begin hand verifying every petition that has been collected. The campaign is also announcing that they have also collected more than 800,000 signatures that have or are in the process of being hand delivered to county election officials throughout California.
1.5 million verified signatures are required to trigger a special election to recall Newsom.
In an email from Robbie Anderson with the Secretary of State’s office in Sacramento to Orrin Heatlie, the Lead Proponent of RecallGavin2020:
“I thought you would like to know that the 10% threshold has been met by you and your team, so counties are now required to verify the signatures,” Anderson wrote.
Heatlie issued the following statement regarding the milestone:
“Today our efforts to Recall California Governor Gavin Newsom have entered a dramatic new phase, and we cannot be prouder of everyone who is working tirelessly to remove America’s worst governor from office,” Heatlie said.
“The campaign is full speed ahead. To date, our amazing team of volunteers have gathered about 800,000 signatures from California voters throughout the state. That is an incredible feat, given the pandemic shutdowns, the wildfires, searing summer heat, riots, and horrible smoke,” Randy Economy, Senior Advisor for RecallGavin2020.com said in a statement.
“This is the greatest grassroots movement in the history of America, and the People will be heard in 2021,” added proponent Mike Netter. “We are taking back our state,’ he added.
I do NOT support this recall and will be voting no.
I completely support the recall of Newsolini. Will vote for it & do everything possible to kick him out.
Sandra, the libtard
It’s probably better to be a libtard than a snowflake moron like you
Recalls are for cowards. We had to stomach 4 years of Trump, you snowflakes can suck it up and wait for the next general election like the rest of us. Unless you like proving to evryone that conservatives lack the strength to do so?
Moron
California has en undisputed democrat majority, if the recall is successful it will mean that both republicans and democrats think Newsom is doing a bad job and should be replaced.
Will not vote to take him out, good work
I don’t know about anything yet but I’ll not vote to remove our Governor .
Goofus Doofus..Whoops! I mean Gavin Newscum is going DOWN!!!! You losers who want to support him?? There is NOTHING you can do about it!! The voice of the people WILL be heard!!
Mr. Newsom is an elitist and should not be in office. I also find it rather strange he’s in isolation AGAIN when his name is linked to SHADY dealings, PPP funds given to French Laundry, how convenient Mr. Newsom. I would be happy to sign a petition to recall his election and would MOST CERTAINLY vote for him to be removed
PPP $385k- Plumpjack Winery- Blind trust
Up to $2billion fraudulent unemployment payments to incarcerated people-when legitimate claims are not honored- no accountability and no actions to correct
$3m of federal funds for businesses he is a partner in- Blind trust excuse again
Now inmates are vaccinated before law abiding citizens??!!!!
Oracle, Hewitt Packard and Tesla heading to Texas – due to the political, litigious and regulatory state environment
When is his mismanagement going to be held accountable?
