I don’t currently have reliable access to fetch additional “latest” polling updates for Becerra vs. Steyer, but the most recent coverage I can see indicates they’ve been neck-and-neck in Democratic primary polling.
What the newest polling reports say
- May 5, 2026 (Emerson College Polling, reported by CALÓ News): Steyer leads Democrats, and Becerra is tied near the top (the report says Becerra is tied at 10% with Katie Porter behind Steyer).[1]
- April 15, 2026 (reported by CALÓ News): Becerra and Steyer were reported as tied for the Democratic lead in a newer set of polls.[2]
- April 29, 2026 (Sfist): Another poll described Steyer as holding the Democratic lead, with Becerra rising (Becerra at 13% in that report).[4]
Context: why “Becerra vs. Steyer” looks volatile
In California’s top-two structure, polls often show a crowded field and movement as candidates drop out or endorsements shift donor/media attention, which can quickly change who’s “leading” among Democrats.[2][4]
If you want, I can narrow it down
Tell me which you mean by “latest”:
- the last 7 days, last 30 days, or since May 15
and whether you want statewide primary polling only, or also regional/LA-area polling (if available).
