Gov. candidate Travis Allen speaks with KION ahead of the June Primary Election

California’s 2018 Governor race is wide-open with Gov. Jerry Brown leaving office. Assemblyman Travis Allen (R-Huntington Beach) is hoping to fill that seat. Allen was in Monterey County, Saturday night, and sat down in the KION studio for an interview about his campaign, and some of the major issues facing California residents.

The primary election is Tuesday, June 5th. In California’s “top two” Primary system, the two candidates with the most votes, regardless of party, will advance to the November ballot.
