Becerra holds 26.03 percent of the vote as of late Thursday night, while Hilton has won 27.18 percent of the vote and Steyer is in third place with 20.18 percent of the vote.

Becerra appears to be doing well among mail-in voters across the Golden State’s 58 counties and is expected to pass Hilton at the current vote-count pace, according to Decision Desk HQ.


Apparently, the statistical models show Becerra will end up with the most votes and Hilton and Steyer will end up in a close battle for 2nd and 3rd.
