纽森州长度过弹刻案

民主党藉的加州州长纽森週三在对他的罢免案中轻鬆打败对手，继续他下半段的州长任期。

虽然州长曾经受到他在疫情间不戴口罩去参加豪华餐厅之晚宴， 但是一般州民对他在疫情期间所採取之措施还是十分支持， 他在当天的胜利演说中曾坚定表示 ，我们赞成科学和疫苗来击败这场疫情，也是他能得民心的原因。

近十年来， 加州已经是民主党之大本营， 多次总统大选是民主党赢得总统宝座的决定原因， 位於加州矽谷的科技大亨， 更是候选人的金主， 然而近年来， 由於加州课税较重，一些企业纷纷出走， 而且房屋价格继续上涨， 由于社会福利条件宽鬆， 许多流浪汉都到了加州。

由於加州天气温和， 每年至少三百天的阳光普照， 许多人都选择到加州， 这个号称“阳光州”，由于疫情及高税收正在影响它的美誉和未来。

California Governor Crushed Effort To Be Recalled

California Governor Gavin Newsom has won himself the second half of his term with a solid mandate for the way he has lead the fight against the pandemic.

More than 9,000 California voters said that the coronavirus was the most pressing issue facing the nation right now and Gavin Newsom won 80% of the votes from them. Newsom said at his victory party that, “We said ‘yes’ to science, ‘yes’ to vaccine and ‘yes’ to ending this pandemic.”

In this recall election, California spent $300 million – what a waste!

Newsom’s victory is a strong indication of Democrats’ power in this sunshine state with a big economic engine.

The big questions in the coming 2022 midterm election is how can Democrats can still control the Congress and the White House?

Many companies have moved out of California because of the pandemic and higher taxes, but still many people love California’s sunshine and beautiful weather.

The Asian community in California has deep roots and they also carry a lot of weight in local communities.

All of us want this pandemic to be over soon. We are looking forward going  back to visit this beautiful state.
