The 74-year-old MLB legend has been meeting with top GOP donors and party leaders as he weighs his options for the state&#8217;s marquee Senate primary in March. <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;He is seriously considering entering the race. He\u2019s concerned about the same <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/republican-richard-burr-explains-guilty-decision-after-voting-trial-unconstitutional\/\" title=\"Republican Richard Burr Explains \u2018Guilty\u2019 Decision After Voting Trial Unconstitutional\">issues facing<\/a> all Californians, out of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/baseball-legend-steve-garvey-mulling-bid-for-dianne-feinsteins-senate-seat\/\" title=\"Steve Garvey considering running for Dianne Feinstein's Senate seat.\">control cost-<\/a>of-living and high taxes, rising crime and lack of opportunities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<footer>&#8211; Andy Gharakhani, Political Consultant<\/footer>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Garvey&#8217;s name recognition could give him an advantage as a Republican running in solidly blue California, but he still faces an uphill battle to victory. The state operates with a &#8220;jungle primary&#8221; system, where candidates from all parties compete to be one of two finalists in the general election. <\/p>\n<h3>The Race for the Senate Seat<\/h3>\n<p>On the Democratic side, the race to replace Sen. Dianne Feinstein is between Reps. Adam Schiff, Katie Porter, and Barbara Lee, with Schiff leading the polls by a significant margin. <\/p>\n<p>LA-based attorney Eric Early is the only Republican in the contest thus far, campaigning as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/missouri-governor-prepping-to-cave-to-pelosi-7-1-gop-redistricted-map-in-doubt\/\" title=\"Missouri Governor Prepping to Cave to Pelosi, 7-1 GOP Redistricted Map in Doubt\">hard-line conservative<\/a>. Garvey, on the other hand, has aligned himself with centrists in the state like Rep. Michelle Steel, whom he headlined a fundraiser for earlier this week. <\/p>\n<h3>Garvey&#8217;s Decision<\/h3>\n<p>Garvey has not yet made a final decision on whether to run for office, but he has been approached by leaders from both sides of the aisle. He expects to make a decision &#8220;in the next few weeks.&#8221; <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;I have been approached to run for office and am exploring that. No announcement is imminent.&#8221;<\/p>\n<footer>&#8211; Steve Garvey<\/footer>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>If Garvey can convince California voters to coalesce around him in next March&#8217;s blanket primary, he could find himself in second place and on his way to the general election.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>Garvey&#8217;s potential entry into the race adds another layer of intrigue to an already competitive contest. With the primary just a few months away, all eyes will be on California to see who will come out on top.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Steve Garvey, the former MLB player, may run for Sen.
