California gubernatorial candidate Antonio Villaraigosa concedes race<\/p>\n

California gubernatorial candidate Antonio Villaraigosa conceded the race after early returns showed him with 1% of the vote.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Villaraigosa said the election did not turn out the way he had hoped and offered his congratulations to the candidates that will move onto the general election in November.<\/p>\n

“I ran for one reason: I love this state, and I know what’s possible when leaders refuse to accept that things are broken. As Mayor of Los Angeles, we made it the safest big city in America, turned around failing schools, and built the greenest port in the country,” he continued in his statement.<\/p>\n

California voter says he has ‘no political home’<\/p>\n

John Sileo, a 65-year-old business owner, said he voted for candidates who would put a check on Trump and also California’s liberal government.<\/p>\n

The self-described moderate Republican said he never liked Trump and voted for Democrat Joe Kerr for Congress rather than the two Republican contenders.<\/p>\n

“Trump has a monopoly now and you’ve got to at least turn the House,” he said outside a vote center in Orange.<\/p>\n

Sileo said he refused to vote for Steve Hilton for California’s governor because he is backed by Trump, and wouldn’t vote for Xavier Becerra because he sees him as a continuation of Democrats’ policies in the state.<\/p>\n

“I voted for Tom Steyer because at least he’s a disruptor,” he said. “He was the best of poor choices.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Last updated: Friday, June 5, 2026 1:12AM GMT FRESNO, Calif.
