With Gavin Newsom term-limited, she clears the field for Democrats like Xavier Becerra, Katie Porter, and Antonio Villaraigosa, plus Republicans such as Steve Hilton and Sheriff Chad Bianco. Harris shifts focus to the 2026 midterms, stressing California's massive influence on national politics as home to one in eight Americans.
