CNN projected Republican John Cox will finish in the top two, and advance to the general election in the California governor’s race.
Cox, a San Diego businessman, was endorsed by President Trump. Republicans feared they could be shut out of the governor’s race in November, which could have depressed GOP voter turnout and adversely affected the party’s congressional candidates.
Former Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa was attempting a political comeback in the race, but will fall short of making the general election.
