"California Senate Primary: Schiff's Hope for GOP's Garvey in Top Two"

In California's Senate race, Democrat Adam Schiff is facing a challenge from Republican Steve Garvey for the top two spots in the primary, which uses a "jungle primary" system. Schiff and his allies have spent millions to boost Garvey in order to avoid splitting the Democratic vote. If Garvey secures a top two spot with Schiff, it could lead to a consolidation of liberal support in the general election. The race is also contested by progressive Democrats Katie Porter and Barbara Lee, while the risk of low turnout due to a quiet Super Tuesday could impact the outcome.
