Dan Walters on the governor's race and ungovernable California

from California Sun Podcast · host Jeff Schechtman

CalMatters columnist Dan Walters joins the podcast to talk about California's strangest governor's race in a half-century: a field with no clear frontrunner, marquee names who sat out, and a billionaire's fortune that couldn't buy a finish. With Xavier Becerra now the heavy favorite and ballots still trickling in, Walters explains why the state may be ungovernable — and what the costly, exhausting, and largely uninformative campaign can and can't fix.
