Some even suggested that it seemed \u2063like a parody created by conservatives to mock liberals.<\/p>\n<p>The upcoming \u2062primary in California will send the top two vote-receivers from the March poll \u200bto the general election, regardless \u200cof party affiliation.\u200b Analysts believe that having Garvey as a competitor in the general election would be\u2064 more favorable for Schiff than dealing with intra-party disputes from other Democratic candidates.<\/p>\n<p>Schiff&#8217;s campaign also enjoys a significant\u200d funding \u200dadvantage over Garvey. As \u200cof December 31, the Federal Election Commission reported that Schiff&#8217;s campaign \u2062had\u200c $34.9 million in \u2064cash on hand, while\u200b Garvey\u2063 had just $308,160. Porter and Lee,\u2064 other\u2063 Democratic candidates, had $13.2 million and $815,960, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Porter, Schiff&#8217;s primary opponent, accused him of making a cynical attempt to help Garvey by appealing to\u200b more Republicans \u200bwho find him too conservative for California. She argued that \u2062Schiff&#8217;s ad is aimed at boosting a Republican candidate and boxing out qualified female candidates.<\/p>\n<p>A recent USC survey \u2062of probable voters showed that Schiff had\u2062 25% of the vote,\u2062 with Porter and Garvey tied at 15% and \u2062Lee at 7%.<\/p>\n<p>In response to Schiff&#8217;s ad, Garvey&#8217;s campaign spokesperson, Matt Shupe, emphasized the aim of bringing\u200b all Californians together for common sense and \u200ccompassionate solutions. Shupe stated that Garvey&#8217;s \u2062campaign is focused on uniting Californians\u2063 rather than promoting divisive rhetoric.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the battle for California between Schiff and Garvey is \u2064heating \u200bup as both\u2062 candidates aim to secure their positions in the upcoming primary and eventually \u200cthe general election. Schiff&#8217;s targeting of Garvey highlights the political \u2062divide within the state, with Garvey representing the Republican side \u200cand Schiff positioning himself as the leading Democrat defending democracy against Trump. The outcome of this race\u200b will have significant implications\u2062 for both parties \u200dand could\u2063 potentially shape the future political landscape in California.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(L) Steve Garvey attends the 2022 Harold and Carole Pump Foundation Gala at The Beverly Hilton on August 19, 2022 in Beverly Hills, California.
