A new survey from the Public Policy Institute of California finds just 40% of likely voters in favor of recalling Governor Gavin Newsom from office. Scott and Katie Orr discuss the governor's political prospects and Thursday vaccination against COVID-19. Then, Democratic consultant Rose Kapolczynski joins to discuss why Democrats should not recruit a 'plan B' candidate to run in the recall, managing Barbara Boxer's 1992 campaign for Senate and why she enjoys working with underdog candidates. Plus, an April Fools Joke that Rose doesn't fall for.

Rose Kapolczynski, icon of West Coast politics

Today we are joined by Rose Kapolczynski, a veteran campaign and communications strategist with more than three decades of experience. Rose is best known for running Senator Barbara Boxer’s campaigns, from her initial upset victory in 1992 to her final race against Carly Fiorina in 2010. These days she is working with Boxer on efforts to get Democrats elected, and is also handling the congressional campaign of Georgette Gómez. Rose relocated to Washington state last year, so she has plenty of experience working remotely and shares her Three Rules for working from home.
