Not so sure about Brown winning. He's a career pol and he brings out strong "anti" feelings because of that. And, Meg has plenty of dough to spread her message. Brown's history as a two term gov was not a good history. His old man was a PITA, too and we were glad to get him gone (I lived in Ca in those days--just visiting now).
As for Boxer, well, one can still hope until the final ballot is cast and counted.
