Republican gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton rallied supporters in the Los Angeles area Wednesday with the election just days away — as his Dem frontrunner rival skipped public events.

Hilton had two scheduled appearances Wednesday in Southern California, holding a press conference in fire-ravaged Altadena alongside HPP Cares, a nonprofit community group that has helped families navigate life after the devastating Eaton Fire last year.

Hilton’s schedule also included plans to rally with Democratic and Independent supporters in Van Nuys, arguing that 16 years of one-party rule in California have only spiked costs for average residents Wednesday night.

The former Fox News host has courted Democratic voters in the past few weeks, launching a provocative, six-figure advertising blitz that, in one instance, teased a lesbian sexual encounter with the slogan: “Just try it, California.”

Becerra had no public events Wednesday. He made the rounds in the Bay Area Tuesday, attending a morning meeting with Asian American bigwigs and an anti-Prop. 39 rally in San Francisco. He then crossed the Bay for a reception with black community leaders and SEIU Local 2015 phonebanking event in Oakland.
