The race to become the next senator of California has tightened as Representative Adam Schiff and Republican candidate Steve Garvey are in a statistical tie in California\u2019s nonpartisan Senate primary.<\/p>\n

According to a poll released on Friday by the Institute of Governmental Studies (IGS) at the University of California, Berkeley, it was revealed that Garvey had 27% support while Schiff (D-Calif.) had 25%.<\/p>\n
\n
This result comes after the Democrat representative spent millions of dollars running ads on Fox News<\/em> criticizing Garvey. The ads, apparently aimed at Republicans, described the former Dodgers and Padres player as a threat to Democrats\u2019 control of Congress. The ads also showcased how Garvey voted for Donald Trump in both the 2016 and 2020 election.<\/p>\n
Representative Katie Porter (D-Calif.), who is also running for the late Senator Dianne Feinstein\u2019s vacant spot, came in third with 19%. Porter claimed that Schiff\u2019s ads were crafted with the hope of boosting Garvey in the polls.<\/p>\n
*Garvey leads the pack in the primary, however when placed head to head with Schiff in the California Senate Runoff, he is behind by 15%.<\/p>\n*
\n
Primary voting takes place on Super Tuesday, March 5^{th<\/sup>. The top two vote getters will advance to the November election.<\/p>\n}
The full term for the Senate spot begins in January 2025. The winner will also take over temporary appointee Senator Laphonza Butler\u2019s (D-Calif.)\u00a0partial term spot following the election results.<\/p>\n
