The Republican is behind in polling, even among independent voters and older Californians.
Photos of U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., at left, a U.S Senate candidate, and his Republican opponent Steve Garvey flash on a television screen during an election night party for Schiff, Tuesday, March 5, 2024, in Los Angeles. Rep. Adam Schiff maintains a large lead in the race to represent California in the U.S. Senate, a new poll released Thursday shows.
Schiff’s 20 points lead is an increase from the last poll from Berkeley IGS conducted in February, which showed Schiff with a 15 point lead. The poll’s authors found that likely voters fall largely along party lines, with about nine out of 10 Republicans preferring Garvey, and 84% of Democrats preferring Schiff. Independent voters in the state are also leaning toward Schiff. Among voters not affiliated with the two major parties, more than half said they would vote for Schiff, with just a quarter preferring Garvey.
