Democrat Xavier Becerra will advance to California's general election for governor, the Associated Press, NBC News, and Decision Desk HQ have projected. A former Health and Human Services Secretary in the Biden administration, Becerra becomes the first to advance to November's election. bit.ly/4vwyOef 📸: Jack Gruber / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images

1/ Thread while I sit here and look at numbers on a Friday night like a nerd: We’re up to about 500k ballots counted now since I tweeted this and the Hilton-Steyer gap has only been closed to 343k. He’s reduced the gap about 70k over the course of the last 1.5M ballots counted.
Addisu Demissie@ASDem

IIRC it was 400k when there were 5M ballots were counted and it’s 350k after 6M. 50k for every million counted is not quite good enough (headed from 150-200k margin). I’ll just wait for the next half million or so to be counted and update this.

I like this visualization. Just shows that the scale of the challenge facing Steyer and a reminder about the importance of the less blue parts of California in the race - especially non-LA SoCal. Orange County is bigger than 19 states!

Another 300k ballots counted since I tweeted this and the margin has closed from 350k to…340k. We’re at 60k raw votes gained by Steyer after 1.3M new ballots counted. Nowhere NEAR good enough. I think this thing is over.

The last person I imagined myself agreeing with, but the analysis here is spot on.

🚨 6/5 update on CA GOV 🗳️ On 6/4 @TomSteyer trailed @SteveHiltonx by 402k ballots. There were about 500k ballots counted yesterday and Steyer now trails Hilton by 394k ballots. Closing the gap by 8k out of 500k is not going to work. Comparing the same top 21 counties to the candidate share on the morning of 6/3 to 6/5 the support levels are very closely matching election night, with Hilton slightly fading by only 1 point in some places, holding steady in others. Steyer continues to match about the same vote share as of 6/5 that he had on 6/3. So far there is no big Steyer boost anywhere and there is no big Hilton collapse. Yes, there are still WAY MORE Dem ballots to count, but Steyer is only winning about 35% of all Dem ballots while Hilton is winning 66% of all GOP ballots. Bianco faded at the end, Hilton rose. So even if there are 2:1 more Dem ballots, Steyer and Hilton basically break even because of well, math.....

@LeftyWinter You don’t think @TomSteyer is buying up these markets the way he bought up those fake polls which hyped up his supporters. We are at the stage where TS starts saying the election is rigged. It’s over. 🤷🏽
