Schiff and Garvey Advance in California in Senate Race to Fill Feinstein’s Seat

HeadlineMar 06, 2024

In California, Democratic Congressmember Adam Schiff and the Republican baseball-star-turned-politician Steve Garvey are headed for a showdown in November to fill the Senate seat of the late Dianne Feinstein. Schiff and Garvey won the top two spots in California’s closely watched nonpartisan primary. Protesters chanting “ceasefire now” interrupted Schiff’s victory speech.

Rep. Adam Schiff: “It would not be possible to get through all the travails of these challenging times without my incredible family.”

Protesters: “Ceasefire now! Ceasefire now!”

Rep. Adam Schiff: “I also want to thank my brother Dan and my brother David, who’s also here this evening.”

Democratic Congressmembers Katie Porter and Barbara Lee placed third and fourth in the California Senate primary. Lee was the only candidate on the ballot who supports a ceasefire in Gaza.
