Episode Details

Steve Hilton, a first-time Republican gubernatorial candidate, is taking on Democratic incumbent Xavier Becerra in California’s general election, promising sweeping reforms to tackle corruption, soaring costs, and crumbling schools — all while positioning himself as the state’s first GOP governor since 2006. With California’s electorate overwhelmingly Democratic, Hilton’s uphill battle includes attacking Becerra as a career politician whose policies have worsened poverty, unemployment, and the cost of living. His bold platform includes tax breaks for middle-class families, freezing college tuition, and helping first-time homebuyers — all while drawing on his immigrant background and conservative values forged in the U.K.
