As we've been reporting, Governor Gavin Newsom kicked off his “No on the Recall” effort with a rally this morning in San Francisco.  This morning's event heralds the start of a four-day statewide that concludes in San Diego. Statements of support from San Francisco politicians and politicos, including Mayor London Breed, were accompanied by “made-for-media” sound bites and optics - all part of the Governor's efforts to kick his “No on the Recall” campaign into high gear.  We also know that the White House and national forces are paying attention to what is happening in California just as voters are set to receive their Recall ballots.  

To discuss further, KCBS Radio news anchor Jeff Bell spoke and Sonoma State Political Scientist Dr. David McCuan spoke to Professor Jessica Levinson of the Loyola School of Law.
