Gavin Newsom Blasts Challenger Larry Elder Ahead of Recall Election: 'He's to the Right' of Trump
California Governor Gavin Newsom attacked his leading opponent, Larry Elder, as being "to the right" of former President Donald Trump during a campaign event Friday, about one month the state's recall election.
Newsom, a Democrat, spoke about what he believes would be the damage done by electing Elder to the governor's office, according to footage off the campaign rally posted online by KTVU-TV.
"That's what's at stake in this election," he said. "Don't think for a second you can't do damage in that role. Think about the judges he'd appoint. Who would he have appointed to replace Kamala Harris in the U.S. Senate? How would that impact the trajectory of the country?
The governor said he hopes residents understand what happens if they do not turn out in record numbers.
