Candidates Set for CNN's California Governor's Debate Amidst Crowded Field
Seven candidates have qualified for CNN's California gubernatorial primary debate scheduled for May 5. The debate will feature Republicans Chad Bianco and Steve Hilton, and Democrats Xavier Becerra, Matt Mahan, Katie Porter, Tom Steyer, and Antonio Villaraigosa. The debate, moderated by CNN's Kaitlan Collins and Elex Michaelson, will be held in the Los Angeles area. The primary is set for June 2, with the top two candidates advancing to the general election. The crowded field has raised concerns among Democrats about vote splitting, potentially benefiting Republican candidates.
