SACRAMENTO, Calif. â Each time the power goes out, frustrated Californians look for someone to blame.
That could spell trouble for Gov. Gavin Newsom, who will appear on a recall ballot during another hot and dry season and as California voters brace for electricity outages around the state.
âIt could be a major issue,â said Dave Gilliard, one of the Republican strategists leading the effort to recall Newsom. âPeople will ultimately hold him responsible for the state of California, and if they canât turn their lights on right around the time theyâre voting, theyâre going to be thinking about that.â
As the COVID pandemic wanes, potential summer and fall outages are a test for a governor whose first term has been defined by emergencies beyond his control.
