The race is now between Francesca Hong, a self-identified democratic socialist, and David Crowley, a county executive. Both candidates have faced challenges, with Crowley receiving support from the outgoing Governor and Hong gaining attention for her progressive platform. Polling indicates a significant portion of Democratic voters remain undecided. Crowley has emphasized the need for a pragmatic approach to attract a winning coalition, while Hong has focused on issues such as data centers, advocating for a moratorium on their development.
