The California Republican Party made the decision not to endorse a candidate in September’s recall election. So far, the race to recall Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom has been met by a crowded field of Republican challengers.

The California GOP delegates voted “with nearly 90% support” not to endorse a single candidate, so far conservative talk radio host Larry Elder, state Assemblyman Kevin Kiley, former San Diego mayor Kevin Faulconer, and former Olympic athlete Caitlyn Jenner make up the main frontrunners.

The Daily Wire reports:

According to The Associated Press, Republican National Committee members Harmeet Dhillon and Shawn Steel told party delegates in an email dated Friday, “The polls are showing that the recall is in a statistical tie and we cannot afford to discourage voters who are passionate about a particular candidate, yet may not vote because their favored candidate didn’t receive the endorsement.”

Both Dhillon and Steel put forward the motion to table the agenda item to endorse a candidate so none would be issued.

“Any of our GOP candidates would be superior to Gavin Newsom,” the email continued. “We believe that the voters should decide his replacement, which will not only ensure a higher turnout of recall proponents but give Newsom’s successor the best chance of reelection in 2022.”

“Today’s overwhelming decision by our delegates to offer no endorsement speaks to the strength of our field of candidates and the outstanding position our party is in going into the recall election,” Millan said. “We are squarely focused on putting California back on track by recalling the worst governor in California history. Gavin Newsom is arrogant, incompetent and a desperate politician who has failed Californians in every way possible.”



  1. Time for the nut case democrats to get impeached, Guess what folks, joe Biden’s CDC faces another law suit, for over stepping it’s authority. National Association of Realtors issued that statement. Biden has militarized every branch of the government as an active arm of the democrat party. This is all against the laws of our Country, These are impeachable offenses, just as most of his executive orders are, this has become the administration of lawsuits, we have no leadership in the White House only a fool, bought paid for through corruption. If joe is trying to divide the Country, cause a revolution, he is doing a great job. CDC does make laws, only congress can do that not the White House or it’s branches. When joe leaves for the old man’s home to escape impeachment, those hiding behind the curtains will then face their crimes,

  2. NEWS! FLASH! EVEN A % OF HIS OWN PARTY WANT HIS CORRUPTED! ASS! GONE! THATS BASED ON THE SIGNATURES! THAT SIGNED THE RECALL! PEOPLE MAKE STUPID! COMMENTS! WITHOUT CHECKIMG THE FACTS! DUH!

  3. Ok Californians ready to save our State!!! It’s up to us, lets pick one 3 or 4 place the names on new social media platform named Gettr and vote that way, then in mass place the winners name on the ballots!

  4. Wow. Cowardice at the very top of the Republican Party. Who would have ever suspected it. This alone illustrates exactly why we still have genocide enshrined into law as abortion and why our families and nation are now under continual assault by sexual deviants with assistance and blessing of our federal government. Those who set the party agenda have yet to discover that it is not our job to figure how to coexist and compromise with our internal Leftist enemies but to defeat and drive them out of office. Candidates ready and willing to accomplish this one thing are those worthy of endorsement and no others.

  5. Short of a very few, the Republican Party is a bunch of wimps. They talk alot but when given the chance to do anything they turn to jelly.

  6. They are making the right decision for now until the field is down to two they will endorse the candidate they think has the best chance to win.

  7. Caitlyn Jenner is not a former Olympic athlete. Bruce Jenner was, and since the he decided to become a she, then that title should no longer apply, because she did NOT earn it! Watch the idiots in California elect this nonqualified idiot.
