Costa Mesa, Sep 14 (EFE/EPA).- Democrat Gavin Newsom won the California gubernatorial recall election on Tuesday by a wide margin, according to US media projections.Preliminary results, mostly from mail-in ballots, suggest that 66.8 percent of California voters (5.5 million) chose to keep the governor in office while 33.2 percent (2.7 million) wanted to recall him.The Republican-led recall referendum needed more than 50 percent of voters to vote in favor of Newsom's removal in order to elect a replacement by simple majority from among the 46 candidates who ran.Conservative radio host Larry Elder led that list of replacement candidates with 43.6 percent (1.9 million).

California Governor Gavin Newsom said he is considering imposing another lockdown. This lockdown would be a stay-at-home order, according to Business Insider. This move on Newsom's part comes as hospitalizations in the state spike amid COVID-19 surges. About 75% of California's 7,733 ICU beds are occupied. California hospitals could reach 112% of capacity by December 24th. If these trends continue, California will have to take much more dramatic, arguably drastic, actions.
