    In one month, Californians will choose a new governor. Today, we bring you a debate between Gavin Newsom and John Cox.

    Newsom, the Democrat, is promising bold action to help families and children.

    Republican businessman John Cox says government spending is out of control ... with regulations and the high cost of living pricing people out of California.

    Over the next hour, you’ll hear them share their vision for the state.
