We have a recall election update for you this morning.
The deadline to remove your name from the recall petition has officially passed - Tuesday’s deadline for county election officials comes after a two-month window where those who signed the recall petition were allowed to have their signatures removed, according to KRON.
Some Democratic lawmakers have been pushing for an election date as soon as late August, and have sent letters to the lieutenant governor urging a date no sooner than September 14 to allow time to work out logistics like polling centers and printing ballots.
Meanwhile, Republican recall candidates running against Newsom are already setting their campaigns in motion - former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner released a new ad Tuesday, adult film star Mary Carey announced she’s kicking off her campaign in Washington D.C. at the end of this week and former San Diego mayor Kevin Faulconer made a stop in San Francisco.
