The petition gathered 105 signatures, surpassing the required \u200b50 to initiate \u2064the process,\u2063 and cites issues such as rising crime, homelessness, and financial \u2062mismanagement as \u2064reasons for the recall. Critics accuse Newsom of misusing taxpayer funds for political agendas instead of addressing the state&#8217;s urgent crises,\u200d particularly the\u200d wildfires. The <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">recall effort \u2063gains traction amid heightened scrutiny<\/a> on California&#8217;s disaster management response. Newsom has until February 7 to acknowledge\u2062 the petition,after which\u200d proponents must\u2064 collect 1.3 \u2064million signatures within 160 days to\u200d secure\u200c a spot on the November ballot. This marks a\u2063 resurgence of recall attempts, echoing similar efforts that have failed since he took office.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Newsom served recall papers after outrage about LA fires<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1958544\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Gov.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/gavin-newsom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"> Gavin Newsom<\/a> (D-CA) was notified of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/recalls\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">recall petition<\/a> to remove him from office this week.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>The petition, spearheaded by California resident Randy Economy&rsquo;s organization called Saving California, was cosigned by 105 people, exceeding the 50 signatures required to initiate recall efforts against Newsom.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The intent to recall petition cited concerns about Newsom&rsquo;s leadership during the Los Angeles fires that devastated the state.
