Steve Hilton’s Bold Bid for California Governor

Steve Hilton’s charge into the California governor’s race is electrifying conservative voters tired of Democratic dominance, promising sweeping tax cuts, deregulation, and oil production boosts to shake up Sacramento after 16 years of one-party rule. Despite Democrat Tom Steyer’s $200 million blitz, Hilton surged past him to face Xavier Becerra in November — a battle Steyer now frames as choosing between Hilton, whom he calls Trump’s pick, and a different future for California. With a GOP base energized by high costs and a Democratic statehouse stacked against him, Hilton’s bold plan — including eliminating income tax on the first $100K and slashing spending by a third — could be his ticket — or his undoing — especially with Trump’s endorsement potentially backfiring in a state wary of GOP leadership.
