Washington Examiner columnist Joe Concha said the Los Angeles mayoral and California gubernatorial elections are both “in play” for Republicans because of messages that are resonating with voters. 

“California, which you would think would be the most safe blue state, and Los Angeles, the most safe blue city in the country, they’re both now in play,” Concha said on Fox & Friends First Tuesday. “Steve Hilton is at the top of the polls as far as the gubernatorial race, and now Spencer Pratt.”
