California Gov. Gavin Newsom has enjoyed a 10 percent bump in popularity over the last six months, according to a new poll.
A survey by the Public Policy Institute of California has found that both Newsom personally and the state’s Democratic-majority legislature have surged in popularity in the second half of the year, a period in which the governor has relentlessly trolled President Donald Trump on social media and passed a new House map to counteract Republican gerrymandering in Texas.
