As election officials continued tallying ballots Wednesday, Republican Steve Hilton and Democrat Xavier Becerra continued to lead in the unsettled race to replace termed-out Gov. Gavin Newsom, with billionaire Democrat Tom Steyer hoping for a surge in late-arriving votes to push him into one of the top-two spots to advance to the November general election.<\/p>\n

Hilton, a British immigrant and former Fox News commentator, told reporters outside the state Capitol in Sacramento Wednesday morning that he was \u201cvery encouraged\u201d by the latest results, though he stopped short of declaring victory.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt does look as if change is coming to California, and that is good news for everyone, every small business, every working family, everyone who wants to see our state set back on track,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Becerra and Steyer did not hold public events as of Wednesday afternoon.<\/p>\n

Election data analyst Paul Mitchell said it would be nearly mathematically impossible for Steyer to close the gap. <\/p>\n

\u201cAs we start to get more data, the runway is going to get shorter and shorter,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He said Steyer, to finish in the top two in the primary, would have to get about 30% of the remaining uncounted votes while Becerra would need to be limited to 15%. The self-funded billionaire has \u201ca very high hill to overcome, and the challenge gets steeper and steeper as we get more data from the counties,\u201d Mitchell said. <\/p>\n

Once mired near the bottom of a crowded pack of Democrats in opinion polls, Becerra, a former Biden administration cabinet member, rocketed ahead of his rival candidates after former Rep. Eric Swalwell dropped out of the race in April amid allegations of sexual assault and misconduct. The scandal triggered an upswing of voter interest in California\u2019s once sluggish governor\u2019s race and in Becerra, who seized the moment. <\/p>\n

\u201cHere in Hollywood\u2019s hometown, we love a good underdog story,\u201d Becerra told cheering supporters at his election night party at La Plaza de Cultura y Artes in downtown Los Angeles. <\/p>\n

Becerra spoke about his Mexican immigrant parents and becoming the first in his family to attend college. Though a longtime California politician, Becerra said that his campaign for governor was outspent and that he faced calls to drop out of the race.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe underdog stayed in the fight,\u201d he said. \u201cLike my parents, I never gave up. \u2026 Never stopped believing in the beacon-light goodness of California and thankfully, neither did you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Steyer, who spent more than $216 million of his wealth on the race, has not conceded defeat. <\/p>\n

His campaign manager, Heather Hargreaves, wrote in a letter to supporters Wednesday that \u201cwe\u2019re going to give democracy time to work. County election officials are still counting ballots and don\u2019t expect to know how many people voted in total until\u201d Thursday, when officials are required to report the estimated number ballots left to process.<\/p>\n

The billionaire former hedge fund owner campaigned against the corporate and special interests that have a powerful presence in Sacramento and often spend heavily in elections, including this year against Steyer.<\/p>\n

Billionaires \u201cdo everything they can to hoard their wealth and avoid paying taxes, and we see corporations continue to rig the system for themselves \u2014 raising your prices to juice their profits. Screw that,\u201d Steyer said at his election watch party at the Regency Ballroom in San Francisco.<\/p>\n

Other candidates in the race included Republican Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco and Democrats including former Rep. Katie Porter, San Jos\u00e9 Mayor Matt Mahan, former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and state Supt. of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond.<\/p>\n

Villaraigosa, Mahan and Porter conceded the race Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

California\u2019s 2026 race for governor started slow but ended with a flourish, including the demise of a scandal-ridden Democratic favorite, the anointing of a Republican by Trump and Becerra\u2019s unexpected rise from the depths of the candidate field.<\/p>\n

Unlike gubernatorial elections in the last quarter of a century, this year\u2019s race lacked a clear crowd-pleasing front-runner able to win over voters, such as movie star Arnold Schwarzenegger or Jerry Brown, a sage of the California electorate and scion of a storied political family. But it unfolded at a time when the state\u2019s residents are overwhelmed by high housing costs, steep gas prices and overall unaffordability that threatens the \u201cCalifornia dream\u201d that once drew millions of people to the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cNormal people are not living and breathing politics on a daily basis,\u201d said Tim Rosales, a strategist who ran Republican John Cox\u2019s unsuccessful 2018 gubernatorial campaign. In today\u2019s information-saturated environment, Rosales said, the race and its roster of \u201cextremely milquetoast candidates\u201d didn\u2019t break through until the Swalwell scandal grabbed voters\u2019 attention. <\/p>\n

The 2026 gubernatorial primary has been one of the most unpredictable and expensive in decades and a race that was shaped early on by a number of heavyweight Democrats staying on the sidelines. <\/p>\n

Though supporters urged them to run, former Vice President Kamala Harris, Sen. Alex Padilla and Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta passed on the race. It was in a state of limbo for months last year as Harris, one of the state\u2019s most high-profile politicians, weighed whether to jump in. <\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t ever recall a playing field that looks like this one. Usually there\u2019s a clear front-runner,\u201d said veteran Democratic strategist Darry Sragow. \u201cIt\u2019s easy to say that it reflects a lack of talent [but] that\u2019s absolutely not true. Almost any of the candidates running could make a good governor.\u201d<\/p>\n

Still, candidates struggled for months to break through to voters.<\/p>\n

In February, polls showed the crowded field of Democrats splitting liberal voters and opening a statistical possibility that the party would be boxed out of November under California\u2019s open, top-two primary, which places all candidates on the same ballot. Only the first- and second-place finishers in the primary advance to the general election, regardless of their party affiliation.<\/p>\n

Just when Swalwell appeared on the cusp of becoming the Democratic front-runner the San Francisco Chronicle and CNN published allegations that he sexually assaulted a former staffer and acted inappropriately with other women. Swalwell suspended his campaign.<\/p>\n

It was Becerra who benefited the most. In less than two months, he vaulted from polling in the low single digits to the top of the field of candidates, according to surveys conducted by UC Berkeley\u2019s Institute of Governmental Studies that were co-sponsored by the Los Angeles Times.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecerra caught lightning in a bottle,\u201d Rosales said. \u201cIt could have easily gone to any of the other candidates,\u201d but many had baggage. Videos of Porter losing her temper hurt her image, the source of Steyer\u2019s wealth and his unbridled campaign spending weighed on voters\u2019 minds, and Villaraigosa and Mahan were \u201cmore centrist than what most Democrats wanted, and so Xavier Becerra was really the safe choice,\u201d Rosales said.<\/p>\n

Before Democratic voters began to narrow down their choices, Trump endorsed Hilton in early April. It helped the former Fox News host break away from Bianco, his main GOP rival.<\/p>\n

In the days before the primary election, the race solidified into a three-way contest involving Becerra, Steyer and Hilton. <\/p>\n

Steyer stepped up his fight in the remaining days, seeking to squeeze into one of the top two spots by battering Becerra in ads and at campaign rallies as a politician propped up by corporate special interests.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe cannot afford to have a governor who\u2019s been bought off by Big Oil. Period,\u201d he said at a Sunday rally in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

Corporations, along with labor unions and interest groups including the California Assn. of Realtors, had spent more than $18.7 million to boost Becerra, according to the election spending tracker California Target Book. Many of the same groups also gave money to a committee intended to attack Steyer.<\/p>\n

As the election neared, Becerra sharpened his attacks against Steyer, calling the billionaire a \u201cliar\u201d and accusing him of trying to buy the election.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not going to let a billionaire or Trump\u2019s handpicked candidate take over this state,\u201d he said during a Sunday rally in Long Beach.<\/p>\n

If Becerra faces off with Hilton in November he\u2019ll have a distinct advantage. Democratic voters outnumber Republicans nearly 2 to 1 in left-leaning California.<\/p>\n

Winning the general election would make the 68-year-old Becerra the first elected Latino governor of California. At roughly 40% of the state\u2019s population, Latinos are California\u2019s largest ethnic group but have not been represented in the governor\u2019s mansion since 1875, when then-Lt. Gov. Romualdo Pacheco was elevated to fill a 10-month vacancy.<\/p>\n
