O, Sweet Saint Of San Andreas

KTLA;

The governor’s race includes a field of 61 candidates, with recent polling showing former California Attorney General and U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, a Democrat, leading the field, followed by billionaire Tom Steyer, also a Democrat, and British-born Republican commentator Steve Hilton.

The Democratic field also includes San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan, former U.S. Rep. Katie Porter, and former L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa. Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco is the only other Republican in the race.

The Golden State’s “jungle primary” system places all candidates, regardless of political party, on the same ballot, but only the top two finishers advance to the general election.

California has not elected a Republican to statewide office since Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner.

In the nonpartisan race for L.A. mayor, incumbent Karen Bass is challenged by Councilmember Nithya Raman, reality TV star Spencer Pratt, Rae Chen Huang, and Adam Miller. Recent polling shows Bass narrowly leading Raman and Pratt, who received the endorsement of President Trump.

The polls opened at 7am and close at 8.

  1. I wish him all success! It would be so great if this happens and there is NO cheating by the Democrats. People in California deserve better politicians.
