California Governor

A suggestive new Hilton ad tries to seduce liberal voters into voting Republican — and instead infuriated his conservative allies.

In their only debate, Xavier Becerra repeatedly linked Steve Hilton to President Donald Trump — while Hilton accused him of dodging California's real problems.

Unions, consumer groups, personal injury lawyers and environmentalists are battling business groups over surveillance pricing and anti-monopoly bills.

What would Xavier Becerra, a 35-year veteran of Democratic politics, do as California governor? He’s still not saying.

Lawmakers just passed a bill that would let the next governor pick the state's schools chief, in place of the state school leader voters elect.

Steve Hilton made the British Conservative Party more liberal and has held policy positions spanning the political spectrum. He’s California Republicans’ best hope at reclaiming the governor’s seat.

Odds are Xavier Becerra will win against Steven Hilton. Then as governor — and unlike Gavin Newsom — Becerra won't likely run for higher office while governing.

Hilton advances to the November general election, where he'll face longtime politician Xavier Becerra.

Legislative Analyst Gabe Petek says state spending grew by $100 billion or so a year since 2019, outstripping revenues and resulting in current and future deficits.

Even after Rep. Eric Swalwell’s swift and sudden exit, the race for governor is still frustratingly murky on the Democratic side, with seven major candidates splitting the vote. As party faithful hope for divine intervention, heavyweights like the speaker emerita and the current governor refuse to weigh in.
