Just weeks ago, Becerra was barely visible at 5%, showing explosive momentum. Voters still prioritize the cost of living, with 74% calling it critical. Meanwhile, Democratic turnout is lagging, with only 11% of registered Democrats having returned mail ballots—down from 2022. The race is tight, the issues are clear, and the final count could rewrite the state’s political landscape. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
