Becerra vs Hilton Debate Countdown | Fresno News

California’s gubernatorial race is heating up as Democrat Xavier Becerra and Republican Steve Hilton prepare for their first major debate, hosted by CNN on September 30 at 6 PM. After months of tension — with Hilton pushing for a showdown and Becerra initially staying quiet — both candidates are now ready to go head-to-head. Their primary clashes resurfaced, with Becerra accusing Hilton of being a MAGA mouthpiece and Hilton attacking Becerra’s past handling of child migrants. Despite Becerra’s current 55% to 38% lead in polls, this live debate could sway voters ahead of early October ballots. Tune in to see if Hilton can chip away at the lead or if Becerra locks it down.
