California Gubernatorial GOP Candidates Leading over Democrat Candidates
California’s Republican gubernatorial candidates Chad Bianco and Steve Hilton are leading ahead of Democratic gubernatorial candidates, according to a recent report.
Kathy Barnette, weekend host on 1210 WPHT talk radio, wrote in an article on X, “PER POLITICO” Bianco, who is the sheriff of Riverside County, “leads the race for governor of California.”
According to the survey of PolicyBianco and Hilton have a one-point difference, with Bianco receiving 18 percent, while Hilton has 17 percent.
On the Democratic side, former Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA) received 14 percent, while Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) received 11 percent. Billionaire climate activist Tom Steyer received eight percent, and former Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra received six percent.
Bianco and Hilton’s lead over their Democratic opponents reflects discontent with the Democratic Party in the state.
Breitbart News reported in March that a poll conducted by national pollster David Wolfson found that nearly 50 percent of likely California voters revealed they were considering voting for a Republican governor.
“It’s a referendum”, Bianco wrote in an article on »
According to Bianco’s campaign website, some of his priorities are “cutting taxes on working families and businesses,” “ending overregulation of California’s economy to support job and business growth” and “unlocking California’s energy resources to lower the price of gas and utilities.”
Bianco’s other priorities include protecting California “by stopping illegal crossings, ending sanctuary policies, and dismantling drug trafficking networks.”
Bianco, who announced in February that he was entering the race for California governor, has called for eliminating the state’s income tax.
“It’s time to end the income tax,” says Bianco wrote in an article on X in December. “Taxpayers should not bear the burden of Sacramento’s special interests.”
Breitbart News reported in October that in an Emerson College poll, Hilton, a conservative commentator, held a one-point lead over Porter, with Hilton having 16 percent, while Porter had 15 percent.
Bianco reportedly got 11 percent, while former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and Becerra received five percent.
