The Senate race in California to replace the late Dianne Feinstein is starting to take shape. The likely winner immediately will become one of the worst members of the chamber: Adam Schiff.

Schiff is pulling ahead in polls, jumping from 16% in November 2023 to 25% in January, according to Emerson College polling. Schiff is almost certainly a lock to finish in the top two in California’s open primary, setting him up for a one-on-one runoff with whoever finishes in second.
