Becerra Extends Lead in California Governor Poll

A PPIC poll of 986 likely voters shows Democrat Xavier Becerra leading the California governor’s race with 23%, followed by Steve Hilton at 20%, Tom Steyer at 15%, Chad Bianco at 13%, and Katie Porter at 12%. The race is shaped by California’s open-primary system, with Becerra gaining momentum after Swalwell dropped out amid misconduct allegations; the survey also highlights broader national mood and other political trends ahead of midterm elections.

Becerra widens lead in CA governor primary as ballot battles loom

A new PPIC poll shows Xavier Becerra leading the California Democratic primary with 23% to Steve Hilton’s 20% and Tom Steyer’s 15%, signaling a likely nomination and a possible November matchup against Hilton. The survey also highlights two ballot fights: a proposed one-time wealth tax leading 54–45 but facing a well-funded opposition, and a Republican-backed voter ID measure that only 49% support, with Democrats and independents largely opposed. Neither measure is yet qualified for November, while 59% of Californians favor the state’s top-two primary, a factor that could influence the race’s dynamics even before the primary.

California governor race crystallizes into a two-tier contest led by Porter, Swalwell, and Steyer

Public Policy Institute of California’s poll shows the governor’s race broken into two tiers: Porter, Swalwell, and Steyer lead the Democratic field with double‑digit support while other Democrats trail; Becerra has faded as Swalwell and Steyer gained momentum, and Matt Mahan has joined late to seek consolidation. On the Republican side, Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco remain in the top five. Although a Democrat is still viewed as the likely winner in 2026, the race remains fluid with no clear frontrunner and broad calls for field consolidation; about 61% of voters say they’re satisfied with their choices.
