As CA continues to count votes, the reality of CA electing its first Latino governor becomes more and more real.

It’s a historic moment for our state.

[Jaime Harrison @harrisonjaime]

Congratulations to my friend and the next Governor of California @XavierBecerra !

[Xavier Becerra @XavierBecerra]

Tonight, I'm surrounded by the people who made this possible. Volunteers who knocked doors, Californians who showed up, and a movement that never stopped believing.

We don't have final results yet — ballots are still being counted. But tonight feels good.

The California Dream is alive. And we're just getting started.

[Xavier Becerra @XavierBecerra]

We will not be bought. We will not be bullied. We are never backing down.

Thank you, California. See you in November!

[Jeff Nesbit @jeffnesbit]

Listen to this if you get a chance. All of it, especially the heartfelt introduction by his three daughters. It will give you hope. California’s next governor.

My parents came to this country with $12 in their pockets.

They trusted that this state, more than any other place in America, would give our family a fair shot.

California gave us everything. And for my entire career, I've pledged to give it back.

Today, I'm asking you to let me do that as Governor.

If you haven't voted yet, the polls close at 8PM.

Get out and vote: https://t.co/Rwfvvu8dQI

[Taylor Lorenz @TaylorLorenz]

I actually posted about this when it happened(!), but upon looking into it I did not find any proof of manipulation. It seemed to be centrist Dem internet users who were genuinely looking for an easy alternative to Swalwell, and the convo was driven by big centrist Dem creators

[Acyn @Acyn]

Becerra: When you've got millions of dollars as a billionaire, you can put up pretty much any commercial you want. We're not gonna rely on that. We're gonna rely on our momentum. We've got the momentum

[Taylor Lorenz @TaylorLorenz]

The Steyer campaign is pushing this report by an Israeli intelligence firm that has a very checkered record on this topic (which they hired). This is the same firm that claimed Nicki Minaj was being boosted by bots, that actually turned out to be a lot of real people.
