While the preliminary election results suggest the majority of Californians support the stateвЂ™s pandemic measures, it was initially NewsomвЂ™s response to Covid that threatened its political fate. вЂњThis vote is an overwhelming victory for the approach he and I share to defeating the pandemic: strong vaccine requirements, strong steps to safely reopen schools, and strong plans to distribute real drugs вЂ“ not fake treatments вЂ“ to help those out who get sick. President Joe Biden, who ran for Newsom on the eve of Election Day, reiterated the governorвЂ™s opinion of his victory. These include Amador County, Calaveras County, Lassen County, Mariposa County, Modoc County, Plumas County, Sierra County, Siskiyou County, Tehama County, and Trinity County, according to the California Secretary of State.ДЄccording to CNBC analysis, all 10 of these counties reported vaccination rates below 50% on election day. Ten out of 11 counties in California rated as rural or predominantly rural voted вЂњyesвЂќ to the recall. The majority of counties classified as rural or predominantly rural supported Newsom and were also less likely to be vaccinated an urban area or areas of 50,000 or more people, according to the latest rural area data from the Census Bureau in 2010. NewsomвЂ™s voters strongly supported Newsom, with 70.8% voting вЂњnoвЂќ. 78 percent of voters also supported the recall.ДЄt the other end of the spectrum, Los Angeles County has an estimated population of over 10 million (as of 2019) and a vaccination rate of 59.5%. Similarly, Modoc County has an estimated population of 8,800 (as of 2019) and a current vaccination rate of 36.3%. Around 84% of voters voted вЂњyesвЂќ to the recall. Lassen County, for example, has an estimated population of around 30,600 (as of 2019) and a current vaccination rate of nearly 22%. Eighteen of the 23 reported fewer than 50% of residents were fully vaccinated on election day, according to a CNBC analysis of California Department of Health data. These small counties also tended to have lower vaccination rates. Meanwhile, only 10 of the 35 counties with more than 100,000 residents voted for the recall. Of the 23 districts with fewer than 100,000 inhabitants, 17 or around three quarters voted with вЂњYesвЂќ for the recall. The analysis also shows that people in many of CaliforniaвЂ™s smaller counties are less likely to support Newsom and get vaccinated. вЂњWe said вЂyesвЂ™ to science, we said вЂyesвЂ™ to vaccines, we said вЂyesвЂ™ to ending this pandemic. I want to focus on what we as a state said вЂYesвЂ™ to,вЂќ Newsom said late Tuesday in Sacramento, thanking his supporters. вЂњвЂNoвЂ™ is not the only thing said tonight. Conversely, people in counties with lower vaccination rates voted for the governorвЂ™s removal. People in counties with high Covid vaccination rates voted overwhelmingly to keep him in office. The dates confirm him.ДЄ CNBC analysis of the county-level results вЂ“ which are tentative as ballots continue to be counted вЂ“ found a strong association between support for Newsom and counties with high Covid vaccination rates on election day, Sept.
