The Democrat-vs.-Democrat dynamic has also led to interesting alliances this winter.
The four leading candidates for U.S. Senate, from left, Democratic Rep. Barbara Lee of Oakland, former first baseman Steve Garvey, Democratic Reps. Adam Schiff of Burbank and Katie Porter of Irvine take part in a debate at the KRON studios in San Francisco on Monday, Feb. 12, 2024. The latest poll in California’s hotly contested race for U.S.
In the Senate race, the three leading Democratic members of Congress have amassed some $60 million toward the open seat currently occupied by Sen. Laphonza Butler, who was appointed by California Gov. Gavin Newsom and who has declined to run for a full term. But Porter has answered in kind, with ads noting little-known Republican Eric Early “stands with” former President Donald Trump, whom Tuesday’s Emerson poll found was backed by 72% of GOP voters but who is unpopular among California voters as a whole.
The poll was conducted Feb. 16-18 among 1,000 registered voters, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points. The poll also found that independent voters are virtually split between Garvey at 23% and Schiff at 22%. They make up the Golden State’s third-largest bloc of voters — Democrats account for 47% of voter registration, Republicans 24% and no party preference voters 22%.
Linney added that while he can’t say for sure “if we’re being hurt by all the money going into that” Senate race, “we’re always short of what we need to have the impact in the fall elections.”
