The latest on governor race; small business economic woes; South County immigration picture

Primary ballots for California's governor race are on their way to voters next week. If you haven't settled on a candidate yet — you're not alone. A recent poll from CBS News found 26% of registered voters remain undecided. We talk about where the race stands after this week's debate. Plus, California's small businesses are struggling from tariff confusion and higher costs, amid the U.S.-Israel war in Iran. We sit down with a reporter who spoke to business owners. And, a conversation with South County reporters about how immigration enforcement is affecting the economy — and everyday life — in the border region. Guests: Anita Chabria , columnist, Los Angeles Times Levi Sumagaysay , economy reporter, CalMatters Kori Suzuki , South Bay and Imperial Valley reporter, KPBS Jim Hinch , South County reporter, Voice of San Diego
