announcer: building a better bay area, moving forward, finding solutions. this is abc 7 news. >> the countdown is on the california's recall election. the final push to voters. now, phil is here to break down everything you need to know before election day on tuesday. good morning, it is sunday, september 12. the weather. here is lisa. we know that it is going to heat up on tuesday. lisa: that's right, in more ways than one. you see some fog behind you from the golden gate bridge. live doppler picking up on some fog moving in over the city,
9:02 am
mainly just along the shoreline. good air quality for most. tomorrow, it becomes moderate. warmer temperatures with northerly winds driving down some of that haze from the dixie fire. 62 oakland, 64 in san jose. a nice-looking view here where you can see the clouds in the distance. 57 santa rosa. 65 livermore. the fog is hugging the shoreline. we warm up today through the 80's by midday and then mid 90's inland. low 70's oakland, 60's at the coast. we will talk about the heat, warmth, the wind in a few minutes. >> is the final countdown to the recall election. just two days to go until voters governor gavin newsom spent yesterday in the bay area campaigning against the recall. he and several challengers will
9:03 am
be campaigning for support again today. phil joins us to discuss this final push for election day. hard to believe we are already here. to go back to the beginning, what does it take to even qualify for a recall election? phil: it takes 12% of the vote of the last governors race in order to qualify. about 19 states have recall laws in effect that you can do it. which makes california unique because we have a propensity for doing it. every governor in california since 1960 has had recall papers taken out by opponents and in circulation, those petitions begun. the difference this time is that only two of them have qualified. one against davis and now against governor newsom. as a matter of fact, newsome had six recall efforts while he was in office for those first 18 months, but none of them took off. the difference here was the
9:04 am
pandemic, growing frustration over everything from homelessness to water use in the central valley, farmers were not happy. you had a lot of people unhappy. but they still were dragging on the number of signatures to qualify. but a judge gave them an extra couple of months because of the pandemic to get out and get the signatures done. they said it was unfair that we were all in lockdown. then gavin newsom made the historic trip to the french laundry, something he has lived to regret many times over where he showed up at a big body at one of the most expensive and exclusive restaurants in the state and was not wearing a mask. and when that was a flash and a rallying cry, that help to get the signatures to qualify this and put it on the ballot and become the second governor in california facing a serious recall. >> what turned things around for newsom, then? >> what happened was, early on, people were kind of ambivalent.
9:05 am
i talked with his campaign manager early on and he said here's a couple of things we've got to do. one, we got to keep a democrat off the ballot. and they did that. one of the ways they did it was by branding this as a republican recall effort. all through this it is called the republican recall effort. number one, that gives democrats out because they don't want to look like they are playing patsy with the republicans. number two, this is not about gavin newsom, this is about a national power grab by the trump-iytetes. the problem is, people were not paying all that much attention. although gavin newsom has support for him staying in office, what he couldn't do is get those voters out. in the last couple of weeks we have seen an intense effort, some $80 million spent to get those voters out. they have done it largely by pivoting on the pandemic, saying this is about the pandemic, this is about how gavin newsom
9:06 am
handled the pandemic with math mandate and vaccine mandate and voting for a republican replacement is going to remove those mandates. and that is what he is betting is going to get people's attention and that is what he is doing. >> we did hear from larry elder just yesterday, where he talks about the downfalls and why he feels he is, you know, going to be the person for the job. let's run that sound because he doesn't spell it all out for us and pointed newsom's downfalls. >> the rise in crime, the rise in homelessness. this guy doesn't have a clue about what to do about that. >> i want to make sure that i clarify, is what he says are governor newsom's downfalls. what is the best thing? phil: larry elder and the republicans are focusing on a
9:07 am
lot of problems facing california. homelessness, crime, cost of living. gavin newsom is focusing on the pandemic, trying to make it about that. in other words, larry elder is trying to make it about gavin newsom. gavin newsom is trying to make it about larry elder. and larry elder is exactly the candidate that gavin newsom wanted to run against. a very conservative republican as opposed to a moderate alternative. that is how they are playing it. that is have the public is seeing it. right down to the finish is going to be interesting to see how this plays out. it is what happens in the ballot box or when you send in that ballot that makes the difference. you really should vote on this one way or the other because it is history and you want to be a part of it. >> how important was it to not have another democrat on the ballot? phil: incredibly important. the samadhi put his name on the ballot when davis was being recall. it signals to the public we are
9:08 am
not real happy and not real sure about this governor so we have somebody in the back and that is how arnold schwarzenegger wound up being the governor. >> looking forward, larry elder said he already foresaw shenanigans. here we are a few days out and people are already alleging voter fraud. we have sound from governor newsom on friday addressing them. >> no matter what they do, and i believe there might very well be shenanigans as there were in the 2020 election -- >> four days out, the election hasn't even happened and they are all claiming election fraud. phil: it's interesting. shenanigans. what are shenanigans? every election has shenanigans. voter fraud is something different. if the election is a blowout, you don't hear about it. you might hear that irregularities because voting is a human endeavor, mistakes are made. out and out fraud is very, very difficult to actually do in any great numbers. because we are split up over 70
9:09 am
different counties, it is just not an easy thing to do. but we are getting to have a running history of alleging voter fraud or improprieties whenever one side doesn't win as a way to delegitimize the outcome and it is something that has become part of american culture. i'm not surprised to see it coming up again. >> we've had for seven minutes and i feel like we still have so much to talk about, but thank you so much for being with us this morning, we really do appreciate your insight. abc 7 is your source for every bit of information when it relates to the recall election, of course. we want you to tune in tuesday for a full day of coverage as voters head to the polls, and be sure to download the abc 7 news at everything you need to know, especially as any breaking news across. now, lisa is tracking our sunday
