Description
Republican Steve Hilton released this attack ad targeting Xavier Becerra in California’s 2026 governor’s race, signaling a possible general election fight even as primary ballots were still being counted. The spot mocks Becerra’s decades in public office by showing silent clips of him on an old-fashioned TV screen with captions portraying him as a career politician and a continuation of California’s political status quo. The ad attacks Becerra over homelessness, high-speed rail, his role in the Biden administration, and his ties to Gov. Gavin Newsom, ending with the message, “Don’t watch another rerun.”
