Atkins opens San Diego Campaign office in Governor's race

SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI)–The race for California governor gained momentum Saturday as longtime San Diego politician Toni Atkins officially opened her campaign headquarters near Mission Hills, rallying supporters and securing endorsements from several high-profile Democrats. Atkins, a former San Diego City Council member, state Assembly speaker and president pro tempore of the state Senate, told the crowd that her political journey has been shaped by both California and her hometown. 'California has given me every opportunity and here I am in San Diego. San Diego has given me every opportunity and frankly made who I am,' she said. Among those endorsing Atkins were state Sen. Steve Padilla, Mayor Todd Gloria, Assemblymember Chris Ward, U.S. Rep. Scott Peters and San Diego County Supervisor Paloma Aguirre. 'Toni Atkins is a doer and not a talker. She leads with action and eloquent example,' Padilla said. Gloria called her 'the real deal,' and Ward praised her 'unshakable commitment to justice and equity.' A proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, Atkins has been a longtime advocate for gay rights. She has also held some of the state's most powerful positions, including serving as acting mayor of San Diego and acting governor of California. In a one-on-one interview, Atkins said she plans to focus on California's affordability crisis, particularly housing and access to health care. She also criticized policies from Washington, D.C., that she said undermine the state. 'This is chaos. It is manufactured chaos coming out of Washington,' she said. 'I will stand strong in the face of the administration that is really attacking California values and our people.' The primary election to replace Gov. Gavin Newsom, who is termed out, will be held in June. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
