Democrat Malia Cohen will become California’s next state controller after a contentious race against Republican Lanhee Chen.
Malia Cohen listens to speakers during a news conference in San Francisco, May 12, 2016. Democrat Cohen has won the race for California controller, beating out Republican Lanhee Chen, who gave his party its best shot in years to end its losing streak in statewide elections.
“As your controller, I will make sure our tax dollars address the homelessness crisis, protect our environment, and provide access to healthcare and reproductive freedom. Let’s build a California where everyone thrives,” Cohen said in a statement. “We have work to do, and I’m excited to get started.”
Chen, a former policy adviser to Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign, won the June primary, but there were four Democrats running against him who collectively won more votes. He marketed himself as someone who would be an independent watchdog of the state’s finances.
