California’s race for governor is heating up — and San José Mayor Matt Mahan says he’s running as a “change” candidate.
In this episode of Political Breakdown, hosts Marisa Lagos and Scott Shafer sit down with Mahan to discuss his approach to homelessness, his support from Silicon Valley’s tech community, and why he’s often challenged fellow Democrats on issues like public safety and housing.
Mahan also reflects on his upbringing in Watsonville and how his father’s career as a mail carrier shaped his path into public service. Political Breakdown is interviewing candidates across the political spectrum to help voters understand not just what they promise — but how they would actually govern.
