California Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis is running for governor. She’s hoping to become the first woman elected governor in state history.
California Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis said Monday she is running for governor in 2026, the first major candidate to announce a bid for an election nearly four years away.
Newsom, a Democrat, is only four months into his second four-year term as governor, having easily won reelection in November. It's somewhat rare for major candidates to announce their candidacies so early in an election cycle. But it does have some advantages.
