Lewis Leads the Pack in Latest Independent Poll

The image you see here is the result of a recent independent poll of 5,000 registered voters (most polls will poll under 1,000 people, so this is significant).

Lewis is tied for the top spot in this poll as his views most closely align with those of the voters in California.

While this is very good news, the fight gets more intense from this point forward. We will need all the support we can get to push Lewis over the top in the upcoming primary!

You can help out, no matter where you live, by donating, volunteering, and by helping to spread the word on social media.

Thank you for your continued support!

CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR RACE 2026

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED VOTER POLL

We are writing to you as a group of anonymous, registered voters in California, representing diverse political individuals that include Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, Green Party, and No Party Preference (NPP / Independent) electorates.

We perceived a failure by mainstream media outlets to adequately present other viable candidates in the current landscape. In response to this, we decided to conduct our own, unbiased poll to gather broader perspectives from all voters.

According to the California Secretary of State's website, 105 candidates are seeking the seat of Governor.

Through extensive research (social media, forums, debates, interviews etc.) we identified 30 candidates who appeared to possess a strong path to achieving ballot viability.

In this first run, we surveyed 5,000 random Northern California county voters and provided the candidate's constitutional alignment, core policy details, and relatability.

Crucially, we deliberately excluded external factors such as current fundraising totals, endorsements, and party affiliation to ensure a focus on platform messaging.

This rigorous process successfully narrowed the field down to 10 gubernatorial candidates who resonated with the greatest impact on voters.

    The best thing about Lewis is that he has integrity. He surrounds himself with bright people to brainstorm and develop plans for many of the issues that afflict our state. No candidate has the integrity that Lewis has. However, President Trump and his Generals and the Military Operation want someone who will follow the Military Plan. Their man is Steve Hilton. Steve is always on Fox News and Lewis is not. Steve is compromised and will do what he is told so that the Military Operation and Plan can play out. The Generals have mapped out this Operation for decades with hundreds of scenarios, using advanced technologies that can look into the future and see all the possible outcomes. It seems arrogant and narcisist when someone says something about how they could do it better. Less than ten people know the entire plan. They know what they are doing and we have to trust it. There are all kinds of Operations going on all over the world all at once. Look at what happened in Mexico today. It’s the most Biblical, historical, and monumental Operation. It is a Pre-Planned, Strategic Operation. Everything that Lewis talks about is going to come out. Nothing can stop it. But things are going to come out when the Military Operation calls for it to come out. Lewis gets ahead of the curve. Most of us would have liked everything to come out yesterday, but this is a Pre-Planned, Strategic Operation. Eventually, everything will be exposed. They are dismantling the deep state in a very strategic way, dismantling the cartels in a very strategic way, dismantling the bureaucracies in a very strategic way. Nothing can stop it. It’s important to trust this Military Operation and Plan and commit to being loyal to it. Sure, people all across the country are going to discuss things and ask questions, but the Generals don’t want anyone getting ahead of the curve, the Plan, that might hinder the strategic way they are going to dismantle, expose, educate the public, etc. Steve is their controlled puppet. The Military Operation will be safe to proceed as planned — with a controlled person for Governor. Many of us in California long to have a political leader who is not a controlled puppet. Lewis would probably be the first. But the Military Operation wants loyalty. President Trump has talked a lot about loyalty because it has been a rare thing with so much corruption in the government. The Military Operation wants a person that won’t jeopardize the Military Operation, like a person they can control — either because they have low integrity and are compromised, or they have high integrity and loyalty to this Strategic Military Operation that is for the Highest Good of our entire country and world.
