Hilton or Steyer? Pratt or Raman? Here's when to expect more results in races for California governor, LA mayor [View all]
Outcomes in California's two tightest and most closely watched primaries for governor and Los Angeles mayor remained unresolved Friday evening, leaving voters hoping that weekend ballot drops would finally determine November election matchups in those key races.
The waiting game continued after California's chaotic primary to succeed term-limited Gov. Gavin Newsom took a big step forward Friday, with CBS News projecting that former U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, a Democrat, had advanced to the general election.
County election offices across the state released their latest results late Friday afternoon, launching Becerra to victory and shifting the focus to who would challenge the former California attorney general to become the state's next chief executive.
Under California's top-two primary system, the two candidates with the most votes will advance to November's general election, regardless of party affiliation.
