Bernie Sanders’ criticisms of the movement, claiming many of those who’ve signed the recall petition are supporters of the senator. "A lot of our people who have signed our petitions are Bernie-crats, because they’re sick and tired of the mess that's been created by Gavin Newsom [and] the Democratic Party here." BERNIE SANDERS CLAIMS GAVIN NEWSOM FACES RECALL FOR 'TELLING PEOPLE TO WEAR MASKS'Sanders, I-Vt., tweeted his criticisms of the recall movement on Monday. "Right wing Republicans in California are trying to recall Gavin Newsom for the crime of telling people to wear masks and for listening to scientists during COVID," Sanders tweeted.
