The California Democratic Party’s money and political muscle proved pivotal to the success of former Gov. Jerry Brown. But Gov. Gavin Newsom may not be as fortunate.

Then gubernatorial candidate Gavin Newsom attracted crowds at California Democratic Party's 2018 convention in San Diego but now, as governor, he must deal with a party in disarray after a sexual harassment scandal led to the resignation of its chairman.

that led to the resignation of party Chairman Eric Bauman, prepare to elect a new leader at the California Democratic Party’s annual convention in San Francisco this weekend.

While Newsom did weigh in on the race for state Democratic Party leader two years ago when he was lieutenant governor, he wasn’t decisive —Newsom backed Bauman early in the race, and later took heat when he also endorsed Ellis closer to the vote. But shortly after Bauman’s resignation in late November, a person close to the governor reached out through intermediaries to gauge Hicks’ interest in running for party chairman, according to two sources with ties to the governor or Hicks who asked to remain anonymous to speak freely about the matter.

“We assume he isn’t going to touch this with a 10-foot pole,” Pelosi said. “We need him to be one of the healers.”

Nancy Pelosi frustrates Democratic activists on impeachment – but party strategists like what she's doingRoughly three dozen House Democrats have called for impeachment hearings on President Donald Trump, a billionaire's TV ads rip the House for 'doing nothing,' and legal experts find clear justification in special counsel Robert Mueller's report. Pelosi keeps resisting – variously citing GOP opposition, Trump's ability to exploit the issue, and the need for more investigation before making a decision. The Dem strategists also liked what Hillary was doing at the time. The House is on break all next week. They will be in session during June & Half of July.. then they will go on August Recess, not coming back till September.. strategy or just your slow ass government at work with Political Theatre to keep you on the edge of your seat! lol What stammering her speech and being incoherent....
