Republican Steve Hilton advances in California governor’s race
Hilton finished second with 25% of the vote as billionaire Tom Steyer fell to third, NBC News projected.
- On Monday, NBC News projected that Republican Steve Hilton secured a runoff spot in the California governor's race, setting up a November showdown against Democrat Xavier Becerra.
- With 88% of votes counted, Hilton received 25% of the vote compared to Becerra's 27.9%, allowing the former Fox News host to narrowly beat billionaire Tom Steyer.
- Steyer placed third with 22% of the vote after spending more than $200 million, while Riverside Sheriff Chad Bianco finished fourth with 10%.

- Hilton, who told NBC Los Angeles he is "100% in favor of legal immigration," predicts farm labor will be automated in five years.
