In California's gubernatorial race, Xavier Becerra receives significant financial support from fossil fuel companies, drawing criticism from opponent Tom Steyer. - Chevron donated $500,000 to a committee backing Becerra, plus $39,200 directly to his campaign.
- An anti-Steyer committee raised $33 million, including over $13 million from PG&E and an electrical workers' union. - Steyer's wealth, from hedge fund Farallon Capital, also has fossil fuel investments.
The primary on June 2 shows Becerra as the Democratic frontrunner, with Steyer and Republican Steve Hilton close behind.
