While outlets like Newsmax and Decision Desk HQ have already projected him as the top Republican challenger to Governor Xavier Becerra, the Associated Press hasn’t officially called the race yet. Hilton remains confident he’ll advance, framing it as a pivotal moment for Californians to choose real change. He’s also leveraging the spotlight to push for sweeping election reforms — including mandatory voter ID, stricter mail-in ballot rules, and faster counting — arguing these steps are essential to rebuild public trust in a system he says needs urgent modernization.
