- CNN’s voter poll found that more than six in ten respondents disapproved of Trump; two-thirds said his policies had worsened the economy.
“If anyone wants to come after California, or any one Californian, they better be ready for a fight.”— Xavier Becerra said this in his victory speech after CNN projected him to win California’s gubernatorial election.

- Colom’s lead grew as ballots were counted in several counties; he was ahead by 60 percentage points in Hinds County.
