A new Emerson College survey of 1,000 likely voters shows Republican Steve Hilton at 17% support, just ahead of Democrat Eric Swalwell and Republican Sheriff Chad Bianco, both at 14%. Katie Porter follows with 10% and Tom Steyer at 9%, while 21% remain undecided. Hilton's lead comes from a narrow edge among GOP voters and strong appeal to independents, fueled by his proposals like no income tax under $100,000 and tackling crime and homelessness. The top-two primary system raises the chance of two Republicans advancing if Democrats split their votes among many candidates.
