His handling of the state's budget deficit and exodus of residents to red states have drawn sharp criticism from both sides. Still, Newsom has maintained ties with major donors and hasn't ruled out a run. Whether Democrats view him as their best bet or damaged goods will depend largely on how the next few years unfold in Sacramento.
