BREAKING: Recall Petition for California Gov. Newsom to Appear on Ballot
# The organizer was Solis Flower:
"I used to be a Democrat, but Jesus set me free."
"We did this!" organizer Solis Flower announced in a Facebook Live video. "This was through the California Patriots Coalition ... I just want to tell you guys that we are beyond blessed."
"The reason that I want to recall Gov. Newsom is because he has ruined our state," she says. "He has made our kids suffer while his kids went to school, his kids played sports and his businesses were opened. .... He had no plan to do anything safely in California."
"He went to Walt Disney World," Solis adds later in the video. "He went to Hawaii while the rest of us were on lockdown, waiting for King Newsom to open the doors for us so that we can even hug our family. Ridiculous.
The recall effort came in large part to the governor's restrictive orders surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, notably those prohibiting indoor worship services, including home Bible studies and fellowship as well as "singing and chanting" while encouraging mass gatherings of protestors throughout the state.
* In Los Angeles County, more Democrats back recall than Republicans... 3 to 1!
