Rep. Adam B. Schiff has expanded his lead over retired Dodgers All-Star Steve Garvey in the U.S. Senate race in California, according to a new poll.
Rep. Adam B. Schiff has slightly expanded his already sizable lead over retired Dodger All-Star Steve Garvey in new polling ahead of California's U.S. Senate race, with the Burbank Democrat now holding a 20-point advantage over his Republican challenger. Schiff was the preferred candidate of 53% of likely voters in the state, while Garvey was preferred by 33%, according to the UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies poll, which was co-sponsored by the Los Angeles Times.
Among registered Democrats, 84% preferred Schiff, while 5% preferred Garvey, the poll found. Among registered Republicans, 88% favored Garvey, while 3% preferred Schiff, the poll found. Among unaffiliated voters, 54% preferred Schiff, 25% preferred Garvey and 21% were undecided. More than half of voters — 52% — said it was very important to them to have a candidate who 'would be a strong voice in defending abortion rights in the Senate,' which appeared to be drawing voters to Schiff.
