A California governor could appoint a new U.S. senator to the evenly divided chamber in the next year or so.

So Newsom was already a ripe target.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A test of Democratic mobilization.\u003c/strong> All eyes will be on to what degree Democrats are enthusiastic ahead of 2022.

She had grown used to seeing political ads where a politician would speak just a phrase of Spanish here or there and consider it enough to win her vote. Yet, she was most taken by how staged she thought the casting seemed, and \u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/5g-OgDeAGao\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the general lack of Latino representation on-screen\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I felt it was like a series of checkboxes. It’s the way they think what Hispanics look like. I didn’t see a representation of Afro-Latinos or queer Latinos,\" she said of the Faulconer ad. \"It's very obvious who they think are not going to vote for them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her father, Porfirio, agreed, saying Faulconer’s ad tailored its message toward well-to-do Latinos. Like Itzel, he believes this reveals how little most politicians and strategists seem to know about California's incredibly diverse Latino population, and how many political ads seem designed to only reach\u003cb> \u003c/b>a selective few.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After viewing Spanish-language ads for Elder — \u003ca href=\"https://www.electelder.com/news/larry-elder-campaign-releases-spanish-ads/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">one of the candidate speaking from his office\u003c/a> and another \u003ca href=\"https://www.sacbee.com/opinion/article253950243.html\">voiced by former Democratic state Senate Majority Leader Gloria Romero\u003c/a>, who recently endorsed him — Itzel called them \"horrible,\" both in content and delivery. She noted that Elder's accent felt very forced.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>'Lack of imagination'\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>But what frustrated Itzel most was that both ads emphasized school closures during the pandemic and the negative impact it has had on youth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The schools did not close. The classes continued online and the children continued learning,\" she said. \"They do not mention the effort, the operation and the infrastructure that it took [to get] digital access to a lot of those children that never had it before,\" she said.[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Itzel Díaz, independent voter in Oakland']'I feel offended in that sense that I mean really, they think that with pure fear they are going to convince us? What a lack of imagination.'[/pullquote]But Itzel also said she felt offended by the three anti-recall spots paid for by Gov. Gavin Newsom's campaign — including one that claimed Republicans backing the recall were the same anti-immigrant politicians who support \u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/21lxnsuj1Sg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">embedding microchips into immigrants\u003c/a>. Trying to reach Latinos with fear-based messaging, she said, may have worked 20 or 30 years ago, but not today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They are ignoring the fact that there are a lot of very well-educated people in the community. That is, people are very well-informed right now,\" she said. \"I feel offended in that sense that I mean really, they think that with pure fear they are going to convince us? What a lack of imagination.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, she believes the anti-recall effort should have focused more on the legislative victories of recent years. This year alone, California lawmakers \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11879724/so-thankful-california-to-offer-medi-cal-to-235000-undocumented-californians\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">expanded Medi-Cal eligibility \u003c/a>to lower-income adults 50 and older, regardless of immigration status, and provided an \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11862122/how-to-get-your-california-stimulus-check-and-other-tax-credits-youre-entitled-to\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">additional $600 to undocumented taxpayers who earn less than $75,000\u003c/a> and were ineligible for federal stimulus payments.\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Something that disappoints me, frustrates me is that they are focusing 100% on fear [and] on the trauma that people already have,” Itzel said, calling that strategy completely unnecessary. \"[Newsom] has done so many things to support the Latino community. I feel he missed an opportunity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Porfirio agreed with his daughter's criticism. He wished the campaign would stop spending so much money on resources to produce fear-based ads and instead emphasize specific ways in which Newsom's administration has supported the Latino community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They are very rushed, they look as if they waited too long to prepare for this election,” he said of the Newsom campaign’s ad strategy, which he claims has had no impact on him. \"Sadly, it's the approach they take in every election, right? To scare people with negativity and leave aside the positive contribution. It's as if they keep betting on that, as if they believe it has more impact.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Obed Avila, from Merced, a Republican and former Marine, said he wasn't swayed by an \u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/j8zSmXltm18\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">anti-recall ad paid for by the California Latino PAC\u003c/a>, linking recall proponents to supporters of Proposition 187, the 1994 ballot measure that targeted the state's undocumented immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A lot of the stuff is a little bit one-sided,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But his sister, Debbie, also a Republican, disagrees. She said the anti-recall ad brought her back to that infamous ballot measure from nearly 30 years ago.[aside postID='news_11857451' hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2021/01/022_KQED_SanFrancisco_PollingPlaces_11032020-1020x680.jpg']\"I remember the feeling of being treated like a second-class citizen,\" she said, through tears. \"I have a lot of pride in my family.

She said she also supported Newsom’s mandate to shut down the state during the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think that shutting down the state was a difficult decision, but I feel that it needed to be done,\" she said. She believes the move helped save lives and curb the spread of COVID-19 in her community, even though she knows many people are still suffering from the pandemic’s economic impact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And while Debbie’s no vote on the recall may seem like an unexpected one for a registered Republican, she said she was also swayed by her support for recent Democratic state legislation helping undocumented seniors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't see a Republican candidate who would have fought for our undocumented seniors [who’ve] worked in the fields their entire lives, and many of them still are working in the fields today,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>'Yo voto con mi fe'\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Adela — Debbie and Obed's mother — who worked as a farm laborer and a teacher for decades, said her spiritual views are the most important factor when deciding whom to vote for. \"Yo voto con mi fe [faith],\" she said. \"I don't look at what other people are doing.

She had grown used to seeing political ads where a politician would speak just a phrase of Spanish here or there and consider it enough to win her vote. Yet, she was most taken by how staged she thought the casting seemed, and \u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/5g-OgDeAGao\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the general lack of Latino representation on-screen\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I felt it was like a series of checkboxes. It’s the way they think what Hispanics look like. I didn’t see a representation of Afro-Latinos or queer Latinos,\" she said of the Faulconer ad. \"It's very obvious who they think are not going to vote for them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her father, Porfirio, agreed, saying Faulconer’s ad tailored its message toward well-to-do Latinos. Like Itzel, he believes this reveals how little most politicians and strategists seem to know about California's incredibly diverse Latino population, and how many political ads seem designed to only reach\u003cb> \u003c/b>a selective few.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After viewing Spanish-language ads for Elder — \u003ca href=\"https://www.electelder.com/news/larry-elder-campaign-releases-spanish-ads/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">one of the candidate speaking from his office\u003c/a> and another \u003ca href=\"https://www.sacbee.com/opinion/article253950243.html\">voiced by former Democratic state Senate Majority Leader Gloria Romero\u003c/a>, who recently endorsed him — Itzel called them \"horrible,\" both in content and delivery. She noted that Elder's accent felt very forced.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>'Lack of imagination'\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>But what frustrated Itzel most was that both ads emphasized school closures during the pandemic and the negative impact it has had on youth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The schools did not close. The classes continued online and the children continued learning,\" she said. \"They do not mention the effort, the operation and the infrastructure that it took [to get] digital access to a lot of those children that never had it before,\" she said.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"'I feel offended in that sense that I mean really, they think that with pure fear they are going to convince us?

Trying to reach Latinos with fear-based messaging, she said, may have worked 20 or 30 years ago, but not today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They are ignoring the fact that there are a lot of very well-educated people in the community. That is, people are very well-informed right now,\" she said. \"I feel offended in that sense that I mean really, they think that with pure fear they are going to convince us? What a lack of imagination.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, she believes the anti-recall effort should have focused more on the legislative victories of recent years.

I feel he missed an opportunity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Porfirio agreed with his daughter's criticism. He wished the campaign would stop spending so much money on resources to produce fear-based ads and instead emphasize specific ways in which Newsom's administration has supported the Latino community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They are very rushed, they look as if they waited too long to prepare for this election,” he said of the Newsom campaign’s ad strategy, which he claims has had no impact on him. \"Sadly, it's the approach they take in every election, right? To scare people with negativity and leave aside the positive contribution. It's as if they keep betting on that, as if they believe it has more impact.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Obed Avila, from Merced, a Republican and former Marine, said he wasn't swayed by an \u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/j8zSmXltm18\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">anti-recall ad paid for by the California Latino PAC\u003c/a>, linking recall proponents to supporters of Proposition 187, the 1994 ballot measure that targeted the state's undocumented immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A lot of the stuff is a little bit one-sided,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But his sister, Debbie, also a Republican, disagrees.
