Billionaire and former Democrat presidential candidate Tom Steyer is reportedly running polls to see he has a chance of defeating California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) in a recall election.
2.1 million signatures were submitted to recall Newsom earlier this month, making a recall election likely by the end of this year.
Steyer reportedly spent $250 million of his own money on his presidential run, but dropped out after Joe Biden won South Carolina.
An anonymous friend close to Steyer doubted he would run against Newsom, even though he thought about running in 2018.
Several Republicans have already said they would run against Newsom, who would have to be recalled before a candidate from either party could be chosen by voters as a replacement.

Newsom should face prison for stealing several million dollars from the California Taxpayers.
Steyer, please don’t run. We don’t need a carbon copy of Newsom, we need new blood,
Vote Republican folks!!!
Do not ever let Steyer near any political position, he will be just as bad as Newsom or WORSE
Please vote republican but make sure they are truly republican. Test them on your state constitution. That is sooo important to have freedom.
