Summary
California’s governor’s race is heating up as Xavier Becerra pulls ahead with 28% support, narrowly leading Tom Steyer at 22% and Steve Hilton at 21%, according to the latest Emerson College poll. Becerra’s surge—up nine points since last survey—has him strong with Democrats, Hispanics, and women, while Hilton dominates the GOP. Steyer’s path to the runoff hinges on energizing young voters. With 5% still undecided and a 3-point margin of error, the race for second place between Steyer and Hilton remains wide open. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
