The most active among the list of long-shot candidates to challenge Gov. Gavin Newsom have each raised six-figure sums for their campaigns.
“This is a tough race,” Republican state Sen. Brian Dahle said about his decision to challenge Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom.
Shellenberger rejects the analysis. He said California voters are primed to embrace an alternative to the entrenched partisan on the ballot in every election. Shellenberger blames Democrats for the state’s rise in homelessness and various crimes. He believes temporary shelter should be made available to everyone, but those seeking permanent housing should be required to seek treatment if they have an addiction or mental health issue. He supports cracking down on homeless encampments and creating a statewide psychiatric and addiction care system that he would call Cal Psych.
“I’ve spent 10 years in the corporate world in the corner office and then in my own company,” the Republican candidate said. “I’ve been an executive role for my whole life. So moving into an executive role, not a legislative role, makes a lot more sense for my skills and my abilities.” Le Roux is an abortion opponent but said the issue is settled law in California. She said she voted for former President Trump but does not agree with his false assertion that the 2020 presidential election was rigged.
Collins, a Black Republican, said he became interested in politics in the wake of the protests over the 2020 death of George Floyd while in police custody in Minneapolis. He said racism exists but is less pervasive than the rampant discrimination that existed during the Jim Crow era, when his parents were required to use separate drinking fountains and weren’t allowed inside some restaurants.
