24. I live in Sac, It is Becerra and Hilton, with Steyer a distant third here

Many of the votes are also in staunch red counties such as Riverside.

It will not be Steyer.

"I dont know if Steyer makes it to the ballot but it is going to be really really close and Decision Desk took a major risk with this call. If they are wrong (which they very well might be), they are probably going to be out of business soon -considering this would be far from the first bad call."

You statement is 100% incorrect. The only "bad call" they've ever made was the Seattle Mayor race. Becerra will be the candidate for us, and it's important for us in CA to coalesce behind him.
