Earlier, BAN reported that California Green Party member Victor Hernandez would appear on the November 2026 ballot in the 59th Assembly district in Orange County. Now it appears that a second Green legislative candidate will qualify for the November ballot. Mark Rendon in the 14th Assembly district is currently in second place in a 3-way race. Here are the returns as of June 11. The three candidates are the Democratic incumbent, Rendon, and a Republican. Currently Rendon is leading the Republican, Borgar Solnordal, by 12,398 to 11,147. Not all the votes are counted.

Assuming Rendon does place second, and there are two California Greens on the November ballot for partisan office, this will be the largest number of Greens on the California November ballot since 2018, when there were three.

The 14th Assembly district is centered on Berkeley and Richmond, and also has parts of Oakland.
