Gov. Gavin Newsom is launching his first TV ads of the election cycle in California — and he isn’t asking voters to support his campaign.
After beating back last year’s recall attempt, he’s sitting on more than $23 million to spend on Democratic candidates and causes. That windfall, along with his attacks on Republicans outside his state and his attempts to position California as a post-While California’s abortion measure is leading in public polls, Newsom contends the ad money was necessary.
Newsom concludes the spot by stating that passage of Prop. 1 will ensure that “California remains a ‘freedom state’ forever.” California already has strong abortion rights, and critics of the measure, led by Catholic and other religious organizations and Republican officials and activists, contend it’s unneeded. They’ve dismissed it as an organizing ploy to help drive Democratic turnout across the state, especially in the handful of battleground congressional districts.
