California: Newsom Recall Roundup -- Endorsement possibilities for GOP; Debate for GOP candidates

The Republican Party will be able to endorse a candidate for Governor, with a need for 60 percent of the vote from delegates at an August 10 meeting. There's a belief that this is designed to help former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer, so there's complaints from other candidates. The party faced similar questions in 2003. 

Gubernatorial debate will take place at the Nixon Library on August 4th with 5 candidates (all Republicans) appearing and conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt moderating and featuring Trump's former NSC Advisor Robert O'Brien as a panelist; Unsurprisingly, Newsom won't be attending and neither will Jenner. 

Op-ed on running the recall as a test for future races for minority voters
