Eleven candidates vie for Californias insurance commissioner role, addressing wildfire risks and soaring homeowner premiums post-devastating fires. Democrats Benjamin Allen, Steven Bradford, and Patrick Wolff, along with Republican Merritt Farren, debated solutions at a Pacific Palisades forum. Farren criticized L.A. Mayor Karen Bass for inadequate firefighting support during the Palisades blaze. Candidates proposed AI drones, water catapults, and transparency on rate changes. Farrens CAL Reinsure idea aims to offload wildfire risks from insurers to a state pool. The June primary will send top two candidates to the November election, as California seeks to resolve the insurance crisis.
