CA-GOV: Poll shows major reshuffling in California governor's race [View all]

Yet another new frontrunner has emerged in California’s topsy-turvy race for governor.

An Emerson College Polling/Inside California Politics survey released Wednesday shows Democratic Congressman Eric Swalwell edging past Republican Steve Hilton for the lead.

The poll of 1,000 registered voters conducted March 7-9 found Swalwell, who represents the eastern Bay Area, at 17%, up from 14% in mid-February. Hilton, a Republican commentator, slipped from 17% to 13%.

Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, also a Republican, polled at 11.4%, followed closely by billionaire Democratic activist Tom Steyer at 11%.
