California gubernatorial candidate Antonio Villaraigosa concedes race

California gubernatorial candidate Antonio Villaraigosa conceded the race after early returns showed him with 1% of the vote.

In a statement, Villaraigosa said the election did not turn out the way he had hoped and offered his congratulations to the candidates that will move onto the general election in November.

"I ran for one reason: I love this state, and I know what's possible when leaders refuse to accept that things are broken. As Mayor of Los Angeles, we made it the safest big city in America, turned around failing schools, and built the greenest port in the country," he continued in his statement.
