The apparent lack of heavy support in the former Republican stronghold of Orange County is one reason why the GOP-backed effort to recall Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom seems headed for failure if it qualifies for a statewide ballot, columnist George Skelton writes.

More than a third of the state’s registered voters said they would vote to oust Newsom from office if the recall qualified for the ballot, though 45% said they would oppose such a move, a Berkeley IGS poll found.Advertisement

These are the Orange County stats, according to state demographers: Since the 2003 Davis recall, the white population has dropped from 49.3% to 41.6%. The Asian American population has increased from 15.3% to 18.2%, and the Latino share from 31.6% to 35.6%.This is why that’s important politically: In this state, according to the Public Policy Institute of California, 54% of Asian American voters register as Democrats. So do 58% of Latino voters.

Once stuff reopens people are going to forget and by fall people are going to say wait why were we mad again

Well well well, hope it goes well for the real OC !!!

He shouldn’t be recalled but we should have a strong democratic challenger in the primary next year.

Many don't understand the RecallGavinNewsom movement. It's a job review. There's no other way to let the governor know he's failing the not-billionaires in this state. And it's clear he's finally paying attention. It is working. No matter what happens with the actual election.

Governor Newsom is a good governor there’s no reason to recall him
