…it would be a first. And in part thanks to Schiffs campaign trying to promote the right wing extremist cause he knows he will be easier to beat than Porter.

Short frame of reference to draw from but a D Vs D prospect is not unlikely unless at least one of the Dems tries tirelessly to make it happen (as schiff appears to be doing)

And what will Porter do now? She has been a real asset in the House. Does Min seem like he has a good chance? deurbano Mar 2024 #17

Porter ran in our newly drawn district 47. SleeplessinSoCal Mar 2024 #18

She was a guest speaker (remotely) for my daughter's public health class at UCI, and she was very popular, deurbano Mar 2024 #22

I'm not sure why she opted to run for the Senate. SleeplessinSoCal Mar 2024 #23

Agreed. I'm pretty sure this a House seat we will now lose. LauraInLA Mar 2024 #19
