Becerra advances toward California governor's race general election

TL;DR Summary
Democrat Xavier Becerra is projected by the AP to advance to California's governor race general election after a late surge in a crowded primary. It remains unclear who will join him on the November ballot, with Republican Steve Hilton and billionaire Tom Steyer in strong positions as mail ballots continue to be counted. Becerra would be the first Latino governor in modern California history if elected; his moderate stance contrasts with Steyer's populist approach and with other rivals who trailed in the primary.
