Californians reveal how they really feel about Gavin Newsom in latest poll
Gov. Gavin Newsom has mixed reviews from primary voters, according to a new California Post-McLaughlin Associates poll.

Texas Republicans got an ominous new sign on Friday that they have a competitive U.S. Senate election.According to the newest poll from the Texas Public Opinion Research, Democratic state lawmaker and Presbyterian minister James Talarico is leading Republican state Attorney General Ken Paxton 47 to 43 — notably, being one of the first polls to show Talarico relatively close to the 50 percent threshold, meaning Republicans would have to win a very large majority of undecided voters to overcome this lead if it is true.One of the other trouble signs for Republicans in the poll is that a significant percent of Republican voters who backed incumbent GOP Sen. John Cornyn, who recently lost in a blowout runoff election after Trump endorsed Paxton, now plan to vote for Talarico.Moreover, this appears to be driven by Paxton's long history of personal scandals, including a previous criminal indictment, impeachment, and accusations of an extramarital affair.According to the poll, almost one in three Cornyn runoff voters "say that they would vote for Talarico, while 44% would vote for Paxton — 23% remain undecided or say that they will not vote." Of the Republican runoff voters backing Talarico, "More than half ... cite Paxton’s criminality or corruption as their primary reason."This comes just two days after another poll suggested Talarico has a lead among Latino voters in Texas — a plurality of the state population — by 27 points."If the actual result of the Texas Senate race among Latinos ends up anywhere close to this, Paxton is cooked," election forecast analyst G. Elliott Morris said of those results.Republicans are fearful that even if they can hold the Texas seat, it will require hundreds of millions of dollars in political spending, draining resources from other battleground states.

On Saturday morning, CNN host Abby Phillip was forced to call out a New York Post journalist who went on an extended rant attacking E. Jean Carroll while justifying a possible DOJ investigation of the Donald Trump adversary.On “Table for Five,” the conversation moved from Trump’s “lawfare” slush fund, to the accusations from the Trump administration that Carroll might have perjured herself during one of her winning lawsuits filed against the president.That led the Post’s Lydia Moynihan to go off.With the entire panel talking over each other, Moynihan won out and claimed, “At this point, nothing is official. It's widely reported by CNN and other outlets. Um, basically she [Carroll] was claiming that an incident happened in 1993, 1984. She didn't have any specific date.”“That's not what this case was about, “ Phillip interjected.“But let me just walk through this case real briefly,” the Post reporter insisted before continuing, “I actually do think if you look at the E. Jean Carroll case now, there is new evidence coming to light. She says that Reid Hoffman had nothing to do with it. It turns out he may have, so that's what they're looking at. But I will acknowledge the perception for Trump is problematic.”“One quick point, a clarification of something that you said -- none of this that we're talking about here as it relates to E. Jean Carroll is new,” the CNN host lectured her. “This idea that Reid Hoffman paid for some of her legal expenses was brought to a judge. It was dealt with in the context of the case and the judge heard the arguments and said it does not impinge on her credibility. So that part of it also has been credible,” she added.“None of this is new. We've known about this for years and the judge dealt with these same allegations in the course of this case,” she pointed out. - YouTube youtu.be

Attorney General Ken Paxton benefited from a late endorsement from President Donald Trump and enthusiasm from Republicans’ MAGA voters to a historic blowout victory in the Senate primary runoff over incumbent John Cornyn. Bloomberg News Texas Bureau Chief Julie Fine and The New York Times Texas Bureau Chief David Goodman joined Christina Ruffini and David Gura on Bloomberg This Weekend to discuss how hard will the Republican establishment rally behind him after backing Cornyn in a bitter campaign that burned through more than $100 million? Many GOP leaders had argued that Paxton would be a weaker nominee because of his past legal and personal woes. But Senator Ted Cruz and Governor Greg Abbott quickly came out with statements supporting him. His opponent in November will be James Talarico, who’s been building his war chest since winning the Democratic primary outright in March. (Source: Bloomberg)
