San Diego -- Leading California gubernatorial candidate Kevin Faulconer's campaign issued the following statement regarding the Department of Finance's initial report indicating the election to recall Governor Gavin Newsom will cost California's counties a total of $215 million.
"This recall will cost a fraction of the $30 billion in EDD fraud Gavin Newsom has presided over. He sent tens of billions of dollars to criminals, including violent felons. Given Newsom’s track record, recalling him will save California billions," said Gus Portela, Press Secretary for Kevin Faulconer for Governor.
