AI Verified The quote is supported. The cited TechCrunch article contains the exact sentence verbatim and explicitly attributes it to Gavin Newsom as part of his tweet: “Newsom said later in the tweet.” A second news report likewise reproduces the same wording as a Newsom post, and California’s official September 17, 2024 release confirms he signed the deepfake-election bills that day.
