Explanation

Gavin Newsom was not successfully recalled. In the September 14, 2021 California gubernatorial recall election, 61.9% of voters chose No on the recall versus 38.1% Yes, so Newsom remained governor and served out his term. (en.wikipedia.org)

Because the core prediction was that “Newsom's going to get recalled,” that part is clearly falsified by the election result. Even though crime and education were issues raised by recall proponents, post-election reporting and exit polls indicate COVID-19 and related pandemic management were the dominant statewide concerns, further undercutting the claim that crime and education would be the key drivers of a successful recall.
