California vote-counting continues: Who’s advancing in the governor and LA mayor races?

As Californians cast their votes in a closely contested gubernatorial race, the counting is still underway with former Fox News host Steve Hilton and ex-HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra vying for the top spot. The race is so tight that only 58% of the votes have been counted so far, with the top two candidates advancing to the general election regardless of party. This contest is crucial as it will determine the state's leadership in the coming years, reflecting broader national political trends and California's unique policy landscape.
