Newsom looked vulnerable last year after more than 1.7 million voters signed a petition to recall him from office. But he easily defeated that recall and now is an overwhelming favorite to win reelection.
Conservative Republican Eric Early was third, with 14%, while Sacramento County District Attorney Anne Marie Schubert, running without party affiliation, had 8% of the vote. Green Party candidate Dan Kapelovitz had 3% in early vote tallies.
Early had finished last in a four-way primary election for attorney general in 2018 and this year was far behind other candidates in campaign fundraising. Bonta has never before run a statewide race and previously was one of the state’s most progressive lawmakers, representing a San Francisco Bay Area district in the state Assembly.
