May 25 Things are looking up for Gov. Gavin Newsom.
After a brutal year of skyrocketing COVID-19 cases, worries about the economy, and a political revolt, the Democratic governor is now enjoying a huge budget surplus, one of the lowest case rates in the nation, and a steady approval rating.
That s why, some Democrats say, the recall election needs to be held sooner rather than later.
State Sen. Steve Glazer, D-Orinda, floated the idea on Twitter last week, saying the best way to beat this reckless recall is to have an early election.

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) Greg Snowden, the former House speaker pro tempore and a 20-year veteran of the Mississippi Legislature, has been named the next director of the Administrative Office of Courts.
Of the near 1.5 million signatures needed to trigger the gubernatorial recall of Gavin Newsom, over 1.6 million have been verified as of last week.
The signatures have been sent back to the 58 counties from the California Secretary of State, who now have 30 days to reconfigure their respective counts if any signatories wish to retract their decision.
After this 30-day period, signatures are resubmitted to the state. Barring the event that enough people retract their signatures to invalidate the recall, the effort to put it on the ballot will continue.
The California Department of Finance and California Secretary of State will then present a cost estimate for the recall to the Joint Legislative Budget Committee, the Governor, the Lt. Governor and the California Secretary of State. This body has 30 days to review the estimate.
