Election Day

Today is Election Day. For your political pleasure, yours truly has gathered up video and audio recordings featuring Governor Newsom - who hardly campaigned for reelection since the statewide Republican Party is very weak - but he actually did have a GOP opponent, Brian Dahle. 

The last few gubernatorial elections have come out roughly 6-to-4 in favor of the Democratic candidate. About a quarter of registered voters in California are Republicans. They, plus some independents and disaffected Democrats, have ended up producing about 40% of the vote, with the rest going to the Democrat, including in last year's attempted recall of the governor.

Below you will find links to video highlights related to the gubernatorial race, the race for mayor of Los Angeles, two rival tribal gambling propositions, and an election that never occurred: the attempted recall of the Los Angeles district attorney. Political junkies will know that in San Francisco, unlike in LA, the district attorney there was recalled.

==================

Here is how Governor Newsom presented himself during 2022 including some Dahle ads and related material:
