In the Independent’s endorsement for Governor you cite Xavier Becerra’s weak leadership role in the COVID crisis, leaving that to Dr. Anthony Fauci, as a reason for questioning Becerra’s executive abilities. Possibly I’ve overlooked Becerra’s expertise in infectious diseases, but what I did not miss is his leadership in allowing the most qualified person available to take the lead. That seems to be the most reassuring example of his executive abilities. I know who I’m trusting with my vote — Xavier Becerra.
