California Gov. Gavin Newsom is poised to become the next golden boy of the Democratic party.
Though he has denied plans to run for president in 2024, instead throwing his support behind a reelection campaign for President Joe Biden, Newsom's career trajectory points to a campaign for the country's highest elected office in his future.
In recent years, Newsom has squared off against high-profile critics like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and positioned himself as a national voice on immigration and gun safety. And, despite attempts from critics to push him from the spotlight with recall votes, his star has continued to rise.
Here's a look at the multimillionaire restaurateur's political career, from his early years serving in the Board of Supervisors to his terms as mayor of San Francisco — and eventually Governor of California.
Representatives for Newsom's office did not respond to a request for comment from Insider about what the Governor regards as highlights from his career.
