‘Cheating In The Recall’: GOP Bashes Newsom Signing Bill To Speed Up Recall Election

On Monday, Democrat legislators who dominate the California legislature passed a bill, SB 152, that will allow them to move up the recall election of Democrat governor Gavin Newsom, galvanizing GOP legislators who accused Newsom of cheating in order to ensure the recall effort fails. Newsom signed the bill on Monday.

Republican Assemblyman Kevin Kiley stated, “The conclusion is inescapable that Gavin Newsom is cheating in the recall and this Legislature is his willing accomplice.” GOP Assemblyman Vince Fong echoed, “It is an attempt to put a thumb on the scale, to try to obtain a partisan outcome for one side.”
