For a race that will shape how California continues to battle the Trump administration, the contest for California attorney general has been more “blah” than buzzy.

Conventional wisdom is that incumbent Democrat Xavier Becerra will handily defeat Republican Steven Bailey on Nov. 6 and continue adding to the more than three dozen legal challenges his office has pursued against President Donald Trump policies to date. Becerra took 46 percent of the vote in a four-candidate June primary to Bailey’s 25 percent.
