Based on where things are currently heading, that’s looking unlikely (which is probably why you used the word ‘might’). If it’s a three-way battle between Bercerra, Steyer, and Hilton for two slots in the final race, there will be a Democrat option. So support will galvanize behind that candidate between June and November.

Trump’s endorsement of Hilton was a huge misstep. Is he have kept quiet there’s a good chance Hilton and that LA Sheriff - both Republicans - would have finished in the top two spots, because of the Democrat vote being so fragmented. But he couldn’t keep his mouth shut, so all the conservatives dutifully fell into line behind Trump’s preferred candidate, and in doing so scuppered the other guy’s campaign and opened the door to a Democrat.
