Governor 

  • Xavier Becerra - D - 28% - Career politician since 1987

  • Steve Hilton - R - 25% - Small Business Owner - Spoke at CRA 2/2026 and Trump, Charlie Kirk, Rep. Kevin Kiley, and Vivek Ramaswamy endorsed - Commentator and Author - Hilton kicked off campaign in April 2025 in Huntington Beach, a bulwark of conservative resistance. Hilton wants practical solutions to rebuild a “ladder of opportunity,” so every Californian can have a great job and a great home — though many are ideas that the progressive Legislature is unlikely to ever support. A former Fox News host and, back when a UK citizen, policy advisor to former British Prime Minister David Cameron. The May 2026 blow-up about the Epstein files was an inquiry by an underling during Steve’s time in the UK asking for contact with Woody Allen (which never panned out). This is guilt by association, even though no association existed.

Morgan has lengthy experience in investment management and financial operations.  After several financial positions as a senior vice president, Morgan founded the investment company Efficient Market Advisors in 2004 and served as its CEO and chief investment officer. It was acquired in 2017 by Cantor Fitzgerald, a global financial services firm, where he now serves as chief investment officer of one of its divisions.  His leadership and financial management experience qualifies him well to oversee the large sums of money in California’s enormous budget.

ALAMEDA COUNTY

Primary Election Results - Percentages reflect Alameda County Voters

Superior Court Judge

All Judge incumbents won by default since no challengers (NOT on ballot). Only two races have competition:

Supervisor - Second District (Hayward-Newark-Union City-Fremont)

District Attorney

  • URSULA JONES DICKSON - D, appointed Incumbent - 64% - ursulajonesdicksonforda.com - Her literature shows experience for this role and extensively backed by Democrat leaders and groups. She did not attend 3/18 Debate, but Price complained at length that Jones Dickson accepted funding from Sheriff’s Organization and undoing work that Price started in charging Sheriff Deputies [for criminal neglect].

  • PAMELA PRICE - D - 26% - Civil Rights Attorney, former District Attorney, ousted by 63% in Recall Election - www.pamelaprice4da.com - 3/18 Debate quote: Price favors rehabilitation over punishment and said “We will see deaths in our jail at an unacceptable rate.

Board of Education - Area 7 (Dublin-Pleasanton—Sunol—Livermore)

Flood Control & Water Conservation District Director, Zone 7 - Vote for 4 - See The Independent, 4/30/2026 and 5/8/2006, for seven candidate statements. “This is a geology/technology oversight role, and the ones that I endorsed are either knowledgeable of geology or have experience with large multi-million projects. The key issues are drilling two new wells in such a way not to spread the PFAS contamination plume, the huge cost to create a pipeline to chain of lakes and coordinating with various Water Boards to provide alternate reservoirs to ameliorate risk of currently getting 90% of water from a single source. Most candidates seem agreed not to distract from Zone 7’s good reputation for protecting our drinking water supply” - Harry (HB)

Party Clash: Carl DeMaio (CA75) of Reform California (RC) reported that the 2025 California bi-annual GOP Convention voted AGAINST: (1) energy independence and (2) deporting illegal border crossers. The California GOP mood was anti-Trump at that 2025 convention and in 4/2026. DeMaio explicitly advocated on 2/2026 to cease donating to the California GOP. He repeated this on his podcast after 4/16. Even so, the CAGOP endorsements after 4/15/2026 matches his own.
