The latest Berkeley IGS Poll finds that among likely voters, 47% favor recalling Gov. Gavin Newsom and only 50% favor his retention. Those numbers are a stark warning for a governor serving amid the most turbulent era in memory, where extreme circumstances within – and beyond – his control could impact the attitude of the electorate at any moment. We are joined today by veteran pollster Mark DiCamillo of the Berkeley IGS Poll – he walks John Howard and Tim Foster through his findings, and even breaks a little news, sharing the preferred political news sources of the respondents.

Plus, as always, we tell you who had the Worst Week in California Politics.
