The wild California election 2010 results went down to the wire as Jerry Brown came away with a hard fought victory over Meg Whitman in the race for Governor. The California election in 2010 also had other big winners including Senator Barbara Boxer.
Boxer won by almost 10% over challenger Carly Fiorina and will help keep the balance of power to the Democrats in the Senate.
The Democrats also faired well in the California election as Jerry Brown was projected to be the winner of the Governor's seat beating Meg Whitman easily. The Harvard educated and former Ebay CEO Whitman spent over $140 million of her own money to finance the campaign only to fall in defeat.
Another major loss for the state was the overwhelming vote against the Prop 19 measure which would have made casual use of marijuana legal in the state. Early estimates indicate that over 50% of the voters were against the ballot measure.
