The FiveThirtyEight polling average shows 51.3% of Californians are now opposed to recalling Gov. Gavin Newsom, while 44.9% support a recall.

1. Don't count your chickens entail they're hatched

Republicans always play as dirty as they can.

11. +1

2. Why is it that tight?

[Abnredleg]

3. COVID restrictions

annoyed a lot of people, and annoyed people vote.

4. Polls don't count

Only votes count.

9. I've been contacted twice

I don't know who was asking but I just said NO!

Period!

NO!

5. Polls are looking better, but we really need to get everybody we know to vote

People aren't thinking about this election so much, and it is easy to forget.

6. What's going on in Texas may wake some folks up here

The last thing we need in California is a right-wing nut governor.

7. Look I hope he survives. But please don't go to that restaurant to celebrate.

Tone deaf.

12. it certainly was....

at the time, I thought it was just a misstep. However, it's amazing hearing how many folks cite this as a reason to recall. Or, they're just looking for a reason. Blown out of proportion in my opinion....

8. Still that 44.9% support is very disturbing,

especially when they know what the alternatives are. Yeah, I wouldn't relax until it is over. Then Democrats in California need to change the laws regarding recalls. A simple majority to essentially overturn an election is insane.

10. It will be a question of turnout. No time to coast.

Would love a big win for Newsom, make the Republicans eat crow.
