Newsom criticized for “blatant hypocrisy” with redistribution

While the Democratic Governor of California Gavin Newsom recommends a special election to advance a redistribution card which promotes democrats, some criticisms underline that he has taken a very different tone when another special election was called upon to withdraw from his functions.

It is estimated that Newsom’s reminder voted 276 million dollars in the state and counties to administer the election, according to an official projection of California Department of Finance.

Meanwhile, the special redistribution election, which will be held on November 4, will cost around $ 230 million, according to estimates by the President of the Credit Committee of the Californian Assembly, Buffy Wicks, Democrat.

In addition to this, during the special elections of November 4, California voters will decide to temporarily suspend the card drawn by the Independent Commission for a card adopted by the Legislative Assembly.

THE Los Angeles Times reported that Newsom saying that the effort consisted of “a handful of partisan activists supporting President Trump and his dangerous Division Program in America are trying to overthrow the final desire of California voters and bring the broken government of Washington to California with this recall effort”.

However, speaking this week in front of a committee in an animated exchange on the expected cost of the special redistribution election, Berman said: “250 million dollars resemble a change in sofa cushion”.
