Adam Schiff of Burbank will face Republican Steve Garvey, a former baseball star, in the November general election to decide who will represent California in the U.S. Senate, after the two men edged out Democratic Reps. Katie Porter of Orange County and Barbara Lee of Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The matchup, in an overwhelmingly Democratic state where a Republican hasn’t won a statewide contest since 2006, is a huge win for Schiff, who ran ads propping up Garvey in the hopes of avoiding a runoff with another Democrat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Associated Press called the race just after 9 p.m., an hour after polls closed Tuesday night, with Schiff decisively leading the pack and Garvey in second place, holding a commanding lead over Porter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee, who raised significantly less money than her opponents and had consistently trailed in the polls, was in a distant fourth place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is the least surprising outcome of any race I think this year,” said Gil Duran, a journalist and political commentator. “And now, although some of our friends maybe in TV have to pretend like there’s a race this year, it’s pretty much over. We all know that. That’s why Schiff pushed to have Garvey in the race with him. There’s no way a Republican can win.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"more election coverage\" tag=\"election-2024\"]The outcome of Tuesday’s race means that California will not be represented by a female senator for the first time since 1992, when the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein took the seat, which she held \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11946670/dianne-feinstein-californias-longest-serving-us-senator-dies-at-age-90\">until her death last fall\u003c/a>. Her replacement, Sen. Laphonza Butler, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11963066/gov-newsom-names-laphonza-butler-to-dianne-feinsteins-senate-seat\">was appointed by Gov. Gavin Newsom in October\u003c/a>, but chose not to run for a full term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a quirk of election timing, voters actually weighed in on two questions Tuesday: Who should compete for the full six-year term that begins next January, and who should fill out the final months of Feinstein’s term after the November election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In both cases, voters chose Garvey and Schiff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff, a longtime congressman and former federal prosecutor, ran as an establishment Democrat, with endorsements from former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, former U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer and most of California’s Democratic congressional delegation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As chair of the House Intelligence Committee, he made national headlines for \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/donald-trump-ap-top-news-ca-state-wire-adam-schiff-politics-3eec3ea9be5c07a9c297bad439f8f3e8\">leading the first impeachment inquiry\u003c/a> into former President Trump in 2020, and appeared in this race to resonate with the state’s Democratic voters worried about a second Trump term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff was kicked off the Intelligence Committee when Republicans took control of the House last year and was also censured last summer by the GOP-led Congress. He mentioned both incidents in his victory speech Tuesday night in Los Angeles, where he thanked the political heavyweights who endorsed his Senate campaign, including Pelosi and Boxer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But tonight, I also find myself thinking a great deal of Sen. Feinstein. Sen. Feinstein who was an incredible giant in the U.S. Senate. Somebody who was not afraid to take on the biggest fights, but somebody who also knew how to get things done,” he told the crowd.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Schiff’s speech was interrupted by protesters chanting “Cease-fire now” — a reminder of the schisms within the Democratic party over the conflict between Israel and Hamas. Schiff has been a staunch supporter of Israel and has rebuffed calls for a cease-fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/politico/status/1765265791107117562\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are so lucky to live in a democracy where we all have the right to protest,” Schiff said, over the shouts of protesters in the audience. “I want to acknowledge the right of our protesters, and I look forward to working with you all.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garvey, a star first baseman for the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres from 1969 to 1987, has never run for office before. He often struggled to articulate policy positions during his short campaign, and lagged behind his Democratic opponents in fundraising.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Garvey managed to consolidate the Republican and conservative vote in the final weeks before the primary, and was likely aided by millions of dollars worth of ads that Schiff’s campaign produced in an effort to elevate him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Keep in mind, this is the first game of a doubleheader. So keep the evening of Nov. 5th open, as we will celebrate again,” Garvey told supporters at an election night party in Palm Desert after taking the stage to the Black Eyed Peas song, “I Gotta Feeling.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Porter, a three-term congresswoman from a swing district in Orange County, ran as an outsider looking to shake things up. She has pushed to ban stock trading among members of Congress and attacked Schiff for taking corporate PAC money in past races.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in a presidential primary election with no real competition at the top of the ticket, Porter was likely hurt by low voter turnout and a lack of engagement among younger voters and voters of color, two of her key constituencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[Schiff] did get the institutional support of most of the California congressional delegation,” said Debbie Mesloh, a Democratic strategist who worked for Kamala Harris’ 2016 Senate campaign. “Unfortunately Porter did not enjoy that support.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Also with two women running, they cut the women’s endorsement votes, they cut the women’s donations,” Mesloh added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The outcome likely marks the end of the 77-year-old Lee’s long political career: To run for the Senate, she had to forego another congressional run, and she will give up her House seat at the end of this term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee, who is best known for her 2001 vote against war in Afghanistan and Iraq, was the only woman of color in the race and the staunchest progressive voice. But she struggled to raise money and introduce herself to voters after representing a safe Bay Area seat for more than a quarter century.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Dianne Feinstein took the seat, which she held \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11946670/dianne-feinstein-californias-longest-serving-us-senator-dies-at-age-90\">until her death last fall\u003c/a>.

Gavin Newsom in October\u003c/a>, but chose not to run for a full term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a quirk of election timing, voters actually weighed in on two questions Tuesday: Who should compete for the full six-year term that begins next January, and who should fill out the final months of Feinstein’s term after the November election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In both cases, voters chose Garvey and Schiff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff, a longtime congressman and former federal prosecutor, ran as an establishment Democrat, with endorsements from former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, former U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer and most of California’s Democratic congressional delegation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As chair of the House Intelligence Committee, he made national headlines for \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/donald-trump-ap-top-news-ca-state-wire-adam-schiff-politics-3eec3ea9be5c07a9c297bad439f8f3e8\">leading the first impeachment inquiry\u003c/a> into former President Trump in 2020, and appeared in this race to resonate with the state’s Democratic voters worried about a second Trump term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schiff was kicked off the Intelligence Committee when Republicans took control of the House last year and was also censured last summer by the GOP-led Congress. He mentioned both incidents in his victory speech Tuesday night in Los Angeles, where he thanked the political heavyweights who endorsed his Senate campaign, including Pelosi and Boxer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But tonight, I also find myself thinking a great deal of Sen. Feinstein. Sen. Feinstein who was an incredible giant in the U.S. Senate. Somebody who was not afraid to take on the biggest fights, but somebody who also knew how to get things done,” he told the crowd.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Schiff’s speech was interrupted by protesters chanting “Cease-fire now” — a reminder of the schisms within the Democratic party over the conflict between Israel and Hamas. Schiff has been a staunch supporter of Israel and has rebuffed calls for a cease-fire.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Katie Porter, Barbara Lee, Adam Schiff found at least one thing they could agree on: Dragging former Los Angeles Dodgers player Steve Garvey over his unwillingness to say whether he plans to vote for Trump a third time at the ballot box.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All four candidates appeared onstage at the University of Southern California for the debate, which was also hosted by Politico and FOX11. They’re fighting for a rare opportunity to represent the most populous state in the nation, a seat left vacant by the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein. It’s only the second time since 1992 that state voters will choose a Senator without an incumbent on the ballot (Vice President Kamala Harris was elected to the open seat in 2016, but she didn’t face a serious challenge.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three Democrats who took the stage have nearly identical voting records in Congress, and share similar positions on many key issues including supporting abortion rights, expanding Medicare, and ending the filibuster in the U.S. Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it was Garvey’s first turn in the spotlight, and he tried to frame himself as a “conservative moderate” in an apparent attempt not to alienate either Trump supporters or independent voters. When pushed to ask whether he disagrees with Republicans in Congress on anything Garvey responded “Just about everything,” but when asked what a second Trump presidency would mean, he demurred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While polls have shown Schiff in the lead, with Porter just a few points behind, many voters remain undecided. The top Democrats are hoping to engineer a runoff against Garvey: Given California’s top two primary system as well as Democrat’s strong voter registration advantage, it would be difficult for Garvey to win. In fact, no Republican has won a statewide election since 2006.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s where the candidates stand on several key issues:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Trump’s reelection\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>All three of the Democrats are strong critics of the former President. But Garvey, who says he voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020, tried to dance around what he would do in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What more do you need to see of what he’s done to be able to say that you will not support him,” Schiff asked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garvey responded, and accused Schiff of engaging in “identity politics.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the time comes, I’ll do exactly what I said I will: Look at the two opponents. I will determine what they did. And at that time I will make my choice. I don’t believe Joe Biden has been for good for this country,” Garvey said, then went on to say the U.S. was safer under Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Porter shot back, “Once a Dodger, always a dodger.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Ballots go out in six weeks, Mr. Garvey.

Katie Porter, Barbara Lee, Adam Schiff found at least one thing they could agree on: Dragging former Los Angeles Dodgers player Steve Garvey over his unwillingness to say whether he plans to vote for Trump a third time at the ballot box.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All four candidates appeared onstage at the University of Southern California for the debate, which was also hosted by Politico and FOX11. They’re fighting for a rare opportunity to represent the most populous state in the nation, a seat left vacant by the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein. It’s only the second time since 1992 that state voters will choose a Senator without an incumbent on the ballot (Vice President Kamala Harris was elected to the open seat in 2016, but she didn’t face a serious challenge.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three Democrats who took the stage have nearly identical voting records in Congress, and share similar positions on many key issues including supporting abortion rights, expanding Medicare, and ending the filibuster in the U.S. Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it was Garvey’s first turn in the spotlight, and he tried to frame himself as a “conservative moderate” in an apparent attempt not to alienate either Trump supporters or independent voters. When pushed to ask whether he disagrees with Republicans in Congress on anything Garvey responded “Just about everything,” but when asked what a second Trump presidency would mean, he demurred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The top Democrats are hoping to engineer a runoff against Garvey: Given California’s top two primary system as well as Democrat’s strong voter registration advantage, it would be difficult for Garvey to win. In fact, no Republican has won a statewide election since 2006.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s where the candidates stand on several key issues:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Trump’s reelection\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>All three of the Democrats are strong critics of the former President. But Garvey, who says he voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020, tried to dance around what he would do in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What more do you need to see of what he’s done to be able to say that you will not support him,” Schiff asked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garvey responded, and accused Schiff of engaging in “identity politics.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the time comes, I’ll do exactly what I said I will: Look at the two opponents. I will determine what they did. And at that time I will make my choice.

"content": "\u003cp>The top Democratic candidates running for U.S. Senate in California made their case to hundreds of delegates Saturday in Sacramento, at a party convention marked by protests calling for party leaders to support a cease-fire in Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The party’s endorsing convention in Sacramento provided a key opportunity for the candidates to rally the party faithful ahead of the March 5 primary. But the Senate hopefuls’ plans to deliver their stump speeches at an afternoon forum ran headlong into protests demanding an end to Israel’s attacks on Gaza in retaliation for the Oct. 7 massacre of Israelis by Hamas, a U.S.-designated terrorist group. Appeals for a cease-fire have \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11967633/heres-where-bay-area-electeds-stand-on-israels-siege-of-gaza\">divided the party’s elected officials from many\u003c/a> in its activist base.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At around 7 p.m., the party announced the cancellation of the remainder of Saturday’s schedule, including the meetings of the Arab American and Democrats for Israel caucuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the afternoon, when Rep. Adam Schiff and Rep. Katie Porter delivered their closing remarks, they were drowned out by chants of “cease-fire now” by dozens of protesters inside the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center, many of whom waved signs supporting Rep. Barbara Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s important for them to hear that these are the people that are going to be electing them, and that this is what we want — a cease-fire now,” said Seema Badar, a protestor and proxy voter at the convention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lexi Reese, a former tech executive, ended her speech as the protests swelled in front of the convention stage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chants turned to cheers when Lee, whose district includes Oakland and Berkeley, took the stage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Seema Badar, protestor and convention proxy voter\"]‘It’s important for them to hear that these are the people that are going to be electing them, and that this is what we want — a cease-fire now.’[/pullquote]“I was the only one who voted against the authorization to use force right after the 9/11 horrific events,” said Lee. “And yes, I am calling for a cease-fire now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The war offered Lee an opportunity to bolster her campaign, which has lagged in the polls and struggled to raise the funds needed to compete on TV with Porter and Schiff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee is the only member of California’s congressional delegation who supports a cease-fire in Gaza. After the candidate forum, hundreds of protesters rallied across the street from the convention in front of the Sacramento Memorial Auditorium before returning to the convention center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Party delegates were scheduled to vote Saturday night on an endorsement in the Senate race, though the splintered field makes it unlikely that any of the candidates will reach the 60% threshold necessary for a party backing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the party stamp of approval was crucial for the candidates to vie for, said Paul Mitchell, vice president of Political Data Inc., a voting research firm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That signal of a party endorsement has just really skyrocketed in importance.

But the Senate hopefuls’ plans to deliver their stump speeches at an afternoon forum ran headlong into protests demanding an end to Israel’s attacks on Gaza in retaliation for the Oct. 7 massacre of Israelis by Hamas, a U.S.-designated terrorist group. Appeals for a cease-fire have \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11967633/heres-where-bay-area-electeds-stand-on-israels-siege-of-gaza\">divided the party’s elected officials from many\u003c/a> in its activist base.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At around 7 p.m., the party announced the cancellation of the remainder of Saturday’s schedule, including the meetings of the Arab American and Democrats for Israel caucuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the afternoon, when Rep. Adam Schiff and Rep. Katie Porter delivered their closing remarks, they were drowned out by chants of “cease-fire now” by dozens of protesters inside the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center, many of whom waved signs supporting Rep.

"headTitle": "Can Steve Garvey Unite California Republicans in His Bid for US Senate? | KQED",
"content": "\u003cp>In two of the last three U.S. Senate elections in California, the Republican Party has failed to advance a candidate out of the top-two primary to the general election — one of many electoral indignities the state GOP has suffered in its decadeslong decline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To avoid that fate in 2024, the GOP will need to consolidate its shrinking share of the electorate around a single candidate in the March 5 primary — and hope Democrats split their allegiances among the three current frontrunners: Reps. Katie Porter, Adam Schiff and Barbara Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Republican with perhaps the best chance to unite GOP primary voters is former baseball star Steve Garvey, whose campaign has paired a glory-days nostalgia with relatively moderate positions on issues like guns and abortion. To continue his rise in the polls and crack the top two, Garvey must now find a way to “cannibalize” conservative votes, said Mark DiCamillo, poll director for the Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies, which released \u003ca href=\"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/39s2g21k\">new polling numbers\u003c/a> on Friday.[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Kristin Olsen, California Strategies\"]‘I’m not sure anyone can unite the party right now. But I do think [Garvey] may have a better shot than most because of the fame and charisma.’[/pullquote]“He would need to become the favorite among all Republicans in order to get himself higher in the polls,” DiCamillo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the \u003ca href=\"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/39s2g21k\">IGS\u003c/a> poll, Porter stands at 17%, with Schiff at 16% and Garvey at 10%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A former All-Star and World Series champion who played for the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres, Garvey is the highest-profile Republican to launch a Senate run in California since former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina’s unsuccessful bid more than a decade ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Garvey, who \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11963999/baseball-legend-steve-garvey-launches-bid-for-feinsteins-senate-seat\">waited until October to officially launch his campaign\u003c/a>, now faces a sprint to introduce himself to voters, raise money and fend off two other Republicans in the race: businessman James Bradley and attorney Eric Early.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just getting a candidate on the November ballot will be an uphill battle for Republicans in the Senate race. California has a top-two primary system, which means voters can select any candidate, regardless of political party. Only 24% of voters in the state are registered as Republicans, and the party has struggled to make inroads with independent and moderate voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thus far, Republicans have divided their votes among the top three GOP contenders in the Senate race, which could dilute the Republican vote and complicate the GOP path to the general election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Garvey still sits outside of the top two, some of the underlying numbers are encouraging for him. Not only has he leaped ahead of Bradley (7%) and Early (4%) among likely voters, but he is the top choice among voters who identified as “strongly conservative” or “somewhat conservative.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most importantly, Garvey — known as “Mr. Clean” during his playing days — appears to have room to grow. The IGS poll found that roughly a third of voters who identify as “strongly conservative” or “somewhat conservative” are undecided in the race — compared with just one in five “somewhat liberal” or “strongly liberal” voters who are undecided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kristin Olsen, a former Republican leader in the state Assembly, said the recent speakership fight in Congress shows the challenge of uniting fractious GOP constituencies around a common purpose. But she said Garvey, due to his career on the baseball diamond, has the advantage of being well-liked and better known than the other Republicans in the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not sure anyone can unite the party right now,” said Olsen, now a partner at the consulting firm California Strategies. “But I do think he may have a better shot than most because of the fame and charisma.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garvey, who has never run for public office, could face headwinds over some of the positions he has staked out early in the campaign, which seem antithetical to the party’s right-wing base. He \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11963999/baseball-legend-steve-garvey-launches-bid-for-feinsteins-senate-seat\">told KQED in October that he opposes a national ban on abortion\u003c/a>, a view in line with the majority of California voters, who last year \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/abortion-us-supreme-court-health-california-89310197d2b3bd3e3ba806620dd2bdbb\">approved a constitutional amendment protecting reproductive rights\u003c/a> in the state. On gun safety, he supports waiting periods and “very stringent background checks” for gun purchases.[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"senate-2024\"]Bradley and Early, meanwhile, have run campaigns more closely aligned to the conservative views held by their party’s grassroots. Bradley, who ran for Senate in 2018 and 2022, has vowed to target critical race theory and support “deep state investigations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Early, a staunch Donald Trump supporter, who ran for state attorney general in 2018 and 2022, is aiming to outflank Garvey among the party faithful. He has already picked up endorsements from county Republican parties from Yolo to Santa Barbara, and on Tuesday, he nabbed the support of the California Republican Assembly, the state’s oldest grassroots GOP organization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Garvey moving to the center, let’s say, runs the risk of losing Republican voters, or certainly some Republican voters, to someone who is tacking to the right, which is what Early seems to be doing,” said Darry Sragow, publisher of the California Target Book, a nonpartisan election guide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sragow said Garvey can’t afford to turn off members of the party base. In recent California elections, few moderate voters have been willing to vote for Republican candidates, and Garvey may not garner enough support from those voters “to compensate for what he loses on the right,” Sragow said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead of an explicit push to consolidate the Republican vote, Garvey’s campaign plans to present him as the most viable Republican candidate — both in terms of his potential to appeal to a broad range of voters and his capacity to raise ample funds for statewide advertising.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Eric Early has earned the respect of the political operation,” said Luis Alvarado, a GOP political strategist who is not working in the race. “But those operatives also want to win, and at the end of the day, if they see that they have an opportunity to elevate their party candidate through Steve Garvey, they’re going to decide that they’re going to coalesce around Steve Garvey.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many unknowns could shape the Senate-race landscape between now and the start of voting in February. An endorsement from Trump could propel any of the Republican candidates into the general election, as it did for \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/elections/2018/05/president-trump-endorses-john-cox-for-governor/\">John Cox in a crowded gubernatorial primary\u003c/a> in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campaign machinations unique to the top-two format could also come into play. If, for instance, Barbara Lee, a Bay Area liberal stalwart, who currently sits at 9% in the IGS poll, can chip away at support from Porter and Schiff in the coming months, Garvey’s path to the general election could become clearer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garvey or other Republicans could try to bolster Lee ahead of the March vote, a move similar to what Democrats did last year when they funded advertisements for Early in the attorney general primary to elevate the conservative lawyer over his moderate opponent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If it becomes a three-way battle among the Democrats, they could be dividing their support evenly,” DiCamillo, of the IGS poll, said. “That might even make it possible for Garvey to come in second even if his support is only in the 20% range or 25% range. So there’s a lot of variables in play.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Katie Porter, Adam Schiff and Barbara Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Republican with perhaps the best chance to unite GOP primary voters is former baseball star Steve Garvey, whose campaign has paired a glory-days nostalgia with relatively moderate positions on issues like guns and abortion. To continue his rise in the polls and crack the top two, Garvey must now find a way to “cannibalize” conservative votes, said Mark DiCamillo, poll director for the Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies, which released \u003ca href=\"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/39s2g21k\">new polling numbers\u003c/a> on Friday.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

California has a top-two primary system, which means voters can select any candidate, regardless of political party. Only 24% of voters in the state are registered as Republicans, and the party has struggled to make inroads with independent and moderate voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thus far, Republicans have divided their votes among the top three GOP contenders in the Senate race, which could dilute the Republican vote and complicate the GOP path to the general election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Garvey still sits outside of the top two, some of the underlying numbers are encouraging for him. Not only has he leaped ahead of Bradley (7%) and Early (4%) among likely voters, but he is the top choice among voters who identified as “strongly conservative” or “somewhat conservative.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most importantly, Garvey — known as “Mr. Clean” during his playing days — appears to have room to grow. The IGS poll found that roughly a third of voters who identify as “strongly conservative” or “somewhat conservative” are undecided in the race — compared with just one in five “somewhat liberal” or “strongly liberal” voters who are undecided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kristin Olsen, a former Republican leader in the state Assembly, said the recent speakership fight in Congress shows the challenge of uniting fractious GOP constituencies around a common purpose. But she said Garvey, due to his career on the baseball diamond, has the advantage of being well-liked and better known than the other Republicans in the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not sure anyone can unite the party right now,” said Olsen, now a partner at the consulting firm California Strategies. “But I do think he may have a better shot than most because of the fame and charisma.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garvey, who has never run for public office, could face headwinds over some of the positions he has staked out early in the campaign, which seem antithetical to the party’s right-wing base. He \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11963999/baseball-legend-steve-garvey-launches-bid-for-feinsteins-senate-seat\">told KQED in October that he opposes a national ban on abortion\u003c/a>, a view in line with the majority of California voters, who last year \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/abortion-us-supreme-court-health-california-89310197d2b3bd3e3ba806620dd2bdbb\">approved a constitutional amendment protecting reproductive rights\u003c/a> in the state. On gun safety, he supports waiting periods and “very stringent background checks” for gun purchases.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Bradley, who ran for Senate in 2018 and 2022, has vowed to target critical race theory and support “deep state investigations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Early, a staunch Donald Trump supporter, who ran for state attorney general in 2018 and 2022, is aiming to outflank Garvey among the party faithful. He has already picked up endorsements from county Republican parties from Yolo to Santa Barbara, and on Tuesday, he nabbed the support of the California Republican Assembly, the state’s oldest grassroots GOP organization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Garvey moving to the center, let’s say, runs the risk of losing Republican voters, or certainly some Republican voters, to someone who is tacking to the right, which is what Early seems to be doing,” said Darry Sragow, publisher of the California Target Book, a nonpartisan election guide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sragow said Garvey can’t afford to turn off members of the party base. In recent California elections, few moderate voters have been willing to vote for Republican candidates, and Garvey may not garner enough support from those voters “to compensate for what he loses on the right,” Sragow said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead of an explicit push to consolidate the Republican vote, Garvey’s campaign plans to present him as the most viable Republican candidate — both in terms of his potential to appeal to a broad range of voters and his capacity to raise ample funds for statewide advertising.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

An endorsement from Trump could propel any of the Republican candidates into the general election, as it did for \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/elections/2018/05/president-trump-endorses-john-cox-for-governor/\">John Cox in a crowded gubernatorial primary\u003c/a> in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campaign machinations unique to the top-two format could also come into play.

So there’s a lot of variables in play.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Dianne Feinstein announced Tuesday she will not seek reelection in 2024, signaling the end of a groundbreaking political career spanning six decades, in which she shattered gender barriers and left a mark on political battles over reproductive rights, gun control and environmental protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am announcing today I will not run for reelection in 2024 but intend to accomplish as much for California as I can through the end of next year when my term ends,” Feinstein said in a statement.[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer\"]‘She’s a legend.

That’s what I’ve done for the last 30 years, and that’s what I plan to do for the next two years. My thanks to the people of California for allowing me to serve them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking to reporters in Washington on Tuesday, Feinstein said, “There’s times for all things under the sun.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She added, “I think that will be the right time, towards the end of next year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The announcement was widely expected. Feinstein, who turns 90 in June, was first elected to the U.S. Senate in 1992 and is currently the oldest serving member of Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent years, questions have been raised about her cognitive health and memory, though she has defended her effectiveness in representing a state that is home to nearly 40 million people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In advance of her announcement, a field of Democratic candidates had already begun assembling for what is likely to be a fierce campaign to replace her in a heavily Democratic state. In January, Reps. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11937601/orange-county-democrat-katie-porter-launches-bid-for-dianne-feinsteins-senate-seat\">Katie Porter\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11939215/los-angeles-democrat-adam-schiff-a-key-trump-critic-running-for-feinsteins-senate-seat\">Adam Schiff\u003c/a> both threw their hats in the ring, with other high-profile candidates likely to follow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feinstein is one of the Senate’s few remaining veterans of the so-called “Year of the Woman,” referring to several women who were elected to the male-dominated chamber during the 1992 election. But even before she moved to Washington, Feinstein had already broken multiple barriers in her home city, and become one of the most prominent women in American politics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the 1970s, Feinstein became the first woman to serve as president of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. She then became the city’s first female mayor, following the November 1978 assassinations of then-Mayor George Moscone and City Supervisor Harvey Milk by a former supervisor, Dan White. Feinstein found Milk’s body.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Washington, she became the first woman to head the Senate Intelligence Committee and the first woman to serve as the Judiciary Committee’s top Democrat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I recognize that women have had to fight for everything they have gotten, every right,” she told The Associated Press in 2005.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long known for her keen mind and razor-sharp tongue, Feinstein gained a reputation as a pragmatic centrist who left a mark on political battles over issues ranging from reproductive rights to environmental protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feinstein is particularly closely associated with efforts to broaden gun restrictions. Early in her career, the Senate approved her amendment to ban manufacturing and sales of certain types of assault weapons as part of a crime bill that President Bill Clinton signed into law in 1994. The ban expired 10 years later and was never replaced, but it remained a trademark issue in a career that was molded by gun violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She was also known for reaching out to Republicans to find middle ground. While that may have helped her notch legislative accomplishments in Washington, it chafed some in a Democratic Party that has moved increasingly to the left in recent years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That frustration was on display during her last reelection campaign in 2018. The California Democratic Party endorsed a liberal rival for her seat, with some delegates complaining Feinstein had been in Washington too long and hadn’t stood strong enough for immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also infuriated liberals in 2020 when she closed out confirmation hearings for Justice Amy Coney Barrett by embracing Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Lindsey Graham, a Republican, and thanking him for a job well done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Liberal advocacy groups that had fiercely opposed Barrett’s nomination to replace the late liberal icon Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg called for Feinstein to step down from the Judiciary Committee leadership. A month later, she announced she would remain on the committee but relinquish her position as the top Democrat.[aside label=\"More on Dianne Feinstein\" tag=\"dianne-feinstein\"]But such tensions were laid aside on Capitol Hill on Tuesday, where Democrats praised her career. At a closed-door lunch of Democratic senators, attendees broke into rounds of applause for Feinstein after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced her decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She’s a legend,” Schumer later told reporters. “A legend in California as the first woman senator, a legend in this Senate. She was the leader on so many different issues, assault weapons, environment, women’s rights, and so much else. She approached everything studiously and carefully.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feinstein told her colleagues that the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Richard-Blum-dies-S-F-financier-UC-regent-and-16953104.php\">recent death of her husband\u003c/a>, Richard Blum, had taken a major toll, and that she was ready to step away from public life after finishing this term, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., said after the meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Senator Feinstein made history,” said Warren. “She changed this country and she was a woman on the front lines in fights, like access to assault weapons, and national security and intelligence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Warren added, “Every other woman in public office owes a special debt to Dianne Feinstein.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her home state, the long-serving senator was lionized for her historic tenure in public service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Senator Feinstein is a trailblazer in every sense of the word,” San Francisco Mayor London Breed said in a statement. “From becoming San Francisco’s first female Mayor in 1978 to being sworn in as California’s first female Senator in 1992, she has always served our city, state, and country with conviction and honor.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic U.S. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, the former House speaker, called her San Francisco neighbor “a titan” of the Senate “with a record that stands among the finest in history.” Pelosi noted that Feinstein also steered billions of federal dollars to California for environmental protection, among a long list of her other accomplishments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For the past thirty years, California and our Country has been magnificently served by the leadership of Senator Feinstein: from our national security and personal safety, to the health of our people and our planet, to the strength of our Democracy,” Pelosi said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>This story includes reporting from KQED’s Matthew Green.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

The ban expired 10 years later and was never replaced, but it remained a trademark issue in a career that was molded by gun violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She was also known for reaching out to Republicans to find middle ground. While that may have helped her notch legislative accomplishments in Washington, it chafed some in a Democratic Party that has moved increasingly to the left in recent years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That frustration was on display during her last reelection campaign in 2018. The California Democratic Party endorsed a liberal rival for her seat, with some delegates complaining Feinstein had been in Washington too long and hadn’t stood strong enough for immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also infuriated liberals in 2020 when she closed out confirmation hearings for Justice Amy Coney Barrett by embracing Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Lindsey Graham, a Republican, and thanking him for a job well done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Liberal advocacy groups that had fiercely opposed Barrett’s nomination to replace the late liberal icon Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg called for Feinstein to step down from the Judiciary Committee leadership. A month later, she announced she would remain on the committee but relinquish her position as the top Democrat.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

At a closed-door lunch of Democratic senators, attendees broke into rounds of applause for Feinstein after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced her decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She’s a legend,” Schumer later told reporters. “A legend in California as the first woman senator, a legend in this Senate.

She approached everything studiously and carefully.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feinstein told her colleagues that the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Richard-Blum-dies-S-F-financier-UC-regent-and-16953104.php\">recent death of her husband\u003c/a>, Richard Blum, had taken a major toll, and that she was ready to step away from public life after finishing this term, Sen.

Nancy Pelosi, the former House speaker, called her San Francisco neighbor “a titan” of the Senate “with a record that stands among the finest in history.” Pelosi noted that Feinstein also steered billions of federal dollars to California for environmental protection, among a long list of her other accomplishments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For the past thirty years, California and our Country has been magnificently served by the leadership of Senator Feinstein: from our national security and personal safety, to the health of our people and our planet, to the strength of our Democracy,” Pelosi said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>This story includes reporting from KQED’s Matthew Green.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
