In light of California’s “jungle primary,” is splitting the votes of conservatives good or bad, and what are the chances of a mostly-conservative Republican being on the November 2026 ballot or being elected governor?
To answer, mostly-conservative Republican Steve Hilton’s entrance into the 2026 California governor’s race has immediately split the conservative vote between him and mostly-conservative Republican Chad Bianco.
If Hilton had not declared his candidacy, Bianco would have been virtually assured of being the highest or second-highest vote-getter in the primary.
Still, in the hypothetical scenarios I’ve been crunching, it’s plausible that a Republican could be one of “the top two” in the primary election, and if Kamala Harris doesn’t jump in, there’s even a path for either Bianco and Hilton to become governor.
Here are the “bigger” declared candidates, so far, in alphabetical order who want to replace Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom, who’s termed out:
Democrats: Toni Atkins, former State Senate leader, former State Assembly leader Xavier Becerra, former U.S. congressman, former State Attorney General, and former U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Eleni Kounalakis, current Lieutenant Governor Katie Porter, former U.S. congresswoman Tony Thurmond, former state assemblyman and current State Superintendent of Public Instruction Antonio Villaraigosa, former state assemblyman, former mayor of Los Angeles Betty Yee, current State Controller
Republicans: Chad Bianco, current sheriff of Riverside County Steve Hilton, media voice, former tech start-up founder, former U.K. government advisor
SCENARIO 1: Two Democrats win “the top two” slots of the June 2026 primary election (two really work hard at the expense of the other Dems), so both Democrats advance to the November election, and a Democrat will again become governor:
SCENARIO 3: 1 Democrat + 1 Republican win “the top two.” Here, the biggest Democrat, Kamala Harris, enters the race and “sucks all the oxygen out” of the other Democrats.
If Harris enters the race, expect up to 5 Democrats to drop out (Atkins, Kounalakis, Porter, Thurmond, and Yee). Also expect Harris to be puffed and promoted by California’s New Communist machinery. This scenario means a Republican will be on the November ballot.
SCENARIO 4: Two Republicanswin “the top two” (if Big Democrat Kamala Harris doesn’t jump in, Democrats might simply split into 7 portions that are smaller than the 2 Republican portions), meaning there will be a Republican governor:
I’ve provided these 4 scenarios to give you hope. In 3 of the 4, a Republican (either Bianco or Hilton, both mostly-conservatives) advances to the general election. Let this energize you to support the candidate who best represents your values!

Please scroll down to see 10 essential things you can urge the Trump Administration to do in California. But first, celebrate the good that President Trump is already doing!
Here are 3 needful ways President Trump is already helping California:
1. HALTING THE BULLET TRAIN BOONDOGGLE: In Los Angeles on Feb. 20, President Trump’s Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced he’s commencing a “compliance review” into California’s wasteful “bullet train” to determine how Newsom & Co. spent $4.3 BILLION in federal funds already given.
For all practical purposes, this action will prevent new federal funding of the Democrat Party machine’s “bullet train’ boondoggle. And without federal funding, the “work” on the “train to nowhere” will likely cease due to the project’s professed dependence on federal funds.
2. PREVENT AND DEPORT INVADERS: More good news is President Trump is already fighting for American security and identity by stationing U.S. troops at our border with Mexico.
Next, you can expect a federal lawsuit against the pro-illegal-alien State of California and California “sanctuary cities” (new U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has already sued the big Democrat-Party states of Illinois and New York).
3. KEEP DRIVING WITH RELIABLE GASOLINE: You can also expect the Republican-controlled Congress to override the California “waivers” to “ban” new gasoline-powered cars as of 2035.
After Trump was reelected, Newsom & Co. sought 8 “waivers” limiting or prohibiting gasoline-powered engines “from locomotives to leaf blowers.” These awful notions of Democrat Party politicians would make electricity more costly and less reliable. Therefore, it’s a relief the Republican Congress is expected to overrule and deny them.
Yet there are ADDITIONAL, PRESSING PROBLEMS for the Trump Administration to solve in California — in at least 10 key areas!
PLEASE TAKE QUICK ACTION: Contact the White House (web form) and the U.S. Dept. of Justice (web form) to lobby them to intervene in California.
It’s most effective if you use the Trump and DOJ web forms for one subject at a time, sending up to 10 separate messages. Each time, in the subject-line field, type a clear message, such as, “Investigate election fraud in California.”
Investigate, expose, and prosecute California election fraud (see more)
Investigate California hospitals that still mutilate children (see more)
Investigate California’s sky-high electricity rates (see more)
Investigate California’s oppressive water rates and water shortages (see more)
Commence aggressive forest management on all federal land in California (the U.S. government owns 45.4% of the land in California, most of it forest and other wilderness areas)
Sue or join existing federal lawsuits to restore our Second Amendment rights (see more)
Investigate vaccine tyranny (“take the shot or else”) where it exists — vaccines should be voluntary (see more)
Investigate violations of religious liberty — for small business owners, students, employees, and more — based on the First Amendment, the 1964 Civil Rights Act, and numerous federal laws
Investigate violations of parental rights in federal law (see more)

Does God approve of deporting illegal aliens?
At least fifteen hundred American troops have been deployed to the U.S. border in San Diego County. Their goal is to capture and deport one hundred thousand illegals.
This is worth supporting, because Creator God supports it. Now liberals like to say, “Welcome the stranger,” and take Scripture out of context. But it’s clear from word definitions that the Bible recognizes only two types of foreigners: permitted guests and invaders.
To hold otherwise is against history, against evidence, and against the Word of God. Because there’s archeological evidence that ancient Israel and Egypt both enforced borders and required permits of resident aliens.
As Bible Hub explains: An ancient boundary stone, often referred to in biblical texts, is a physical marker used to delineate property lines and territorial borders. These stones were crucial in maintaining order and justice within the agrarian societies of the ancient Near East, including Israel. They served as a testament to the rightful ownership and inheritance of land, which was a significant aspect of God’s covenant with His people.
“Who Is The Stranger?” is an excellent article by former Arizona state senator Karen Johnson. It explains how illegal aliens are against the Bible’s commands about foreigners — because all foreigners needed permission.
What’s more, consider these Bible verses commanding everyone to honor boundary stones:
“You shall not remove your neighbor’s landmark, which the men of old have set, in your inheritance which you will inherit in the land that the LORD your God is giving you to possess.” (Deuteronomy 19:14)
“‘Cursed is the one who moves his neighbor’s landmark.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!'” (Deuteronomy 27:17)
“Some remove landmarks; They seize flocks violently and feed on them;” (Job 24:2)
Do not remove the ancient landmark Which your fathers have set. (Proverbs 22:28)
“Do not remove the ancient landmark, Nor enter the fields of the fatherless;” (Proverbs 23:10)
“The princes of Judah are like those who remove a landmark; I will pour out My wrath on them like water.” (Hosea 5:10)
And it wasn’t just ancient Israel, with the Old Testament. Non-Jewish nations also had strict boundaries:
So, if you’re a person of faith, you should oppose illegal immigration. But if you’re not, you still have several reasons to oppose the invasion of illegals. For they increase crime and the cost of living, and steal American culture and language away.
