2022 election: Q&A with Shawn Collins, California gubernatorial candidate [Opinion]
After easily surviving a recall last year, Gov. Gavin Newsom is expected to cruise to re-election. The only question in the June 7 gubernatorial election is who will be the the second highest vote-getter and make the Nov. 8 runoff with him. We are publishing Q&As from Newsom, a Democrat who has raised $7.5 million for his campaign, and six of his seven challengers who have raised more than $80,000 for theirs. One didn’t respond to our requests.
Q: Homelessness has exploded statewide despite unprecedented attention and state aid. What should the state be doing that it isn’t? What’s working and what is not working? A: The No. 1 responsibility of any governor is to ensure that their citizens are safe, so that they can engage in their day-to-day activities without fear of physical harm. Gov. Gavin Newsom has failed miserably at this most sacred of gubernatorial responsibilities, and the ramifications for the state have been catastrophic.
Q: California is running record budget surpluses at the same time many of its 39 million residents are struggling to make ends meet. What do you say to people who are frustrated by this picture? Q: What do you consider the state’s most pressing concern related to climate change and how would you address it?
Q: Public schools face declining enrollment, teacher shortages and a continuing achievement gap. How would you improve public education and ensure equity for all students?
