Newsom to speak at California Democratic Party convention amid recall effort
Fox News
California Gov. Gavin Newsom will address the Democratic Party faithful Saturday as he mounts a campaign to keep his job.
Voters will get the chance in the all-but-certain election this fall to decide whether the first-term Democrat should be booted from office before his term ends. Delegates at the convention are some of the party's most hardworking organizers, who can knock on doors, make phone calls or provide a cheering section at rallies for Democratic candidates. "The governor can speak and remind everyone why we supported him to be governor and why he won with an overwhelmingly majority," said Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis, a fellow Democrat. To the party activists, Republicans are trying to sabotage Newsom and "that is what will ultimately create the organizational support to defeat the recall."More Related News
