Gavin Newsom Outraises All Recall Rivals, Combined, by 3-to-1 Margin

Joel B. Pollak 11 Aug 2021

Incumbent Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), fighting to survive a Sep. 14 recall election, has raised three times as much campaign cash as all of his more than 40 rivals — combined.

The San Francisco Chronicle reported:

    Newsom has raised more than $58.8 million to defend himself in the Sept. 14 recall election, including $49 million for his recall defense committee and another $9.9 million for his 2022 re-election campaign.

    That’s nearly three times as much as all of his top GOP challengers combined. And Newsom’s advantage has only grown over time — in June, he had raised about twice as much as the entire Republican field.

    …

    His largest donors include Netflix CEO Reed Hastings, who gave $3 million; the Service Employees International Union, which contributed more than $3 million; and the California Teachers Association, the educators’ union that has spent more than $1.8 million to help Newsom survive the recall.

    …

    The six most well-known Republicans have raised about $20.2 million total between their campaigns, even as the field has drawn more prominent figures, such as conservative talk radio host Larry Elder.

Classic - state unions collectively negotiate progressively higher wages for their members, then demand dues which they turn around and give to rat candidates whom they then own. A criminal racket and a rigged system.

Look for the union label.

California was the prototype for H.R. 1.  Newsom is going to use all of this money to harvest ballots.
