Republican Steve Garvey Rises To Top Of A California Senate Poll Despite Running No TV Ads — And He May Have Adam Schiff To Thank For It
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA) are making their final TV ads buys before Tuesday’s Senate primary, but one candidate has shot to the top of the polls without spending a dime on such spots. In fact, according to one poll released today, former Dodgers star and Republican Steve G...
Or, now hear me out, OR... people taking the poll thought they were talking about Steve Harvey.
And now you know, the rest of the sto... no, wait. That's Paul Harvey.
He's a humorist. It's not supposed to be that funny. Just humourous.
Edit - was thinking of Steve Allen. Time to see the neurologist.
Garvey is only at the top because there are three Democrats in the race who are splitting the Democratic vote. The Democrat will easily win the runoff.
sure, thank adam schiff now get destroyed by him in november since the democratic vote won't be split 3 ways.
How are the Dems screwing up this bad? SMH what the hell?
The article doesn't provide the poll and doesn't reference any numbers, just three names. Schiff, Porter, and Garvey. Seeing as how Garvey is the only Republican, and how blue California is, it is more likely that the poll shows Garvey in top because there is still a primary and the polls are split on the Democrat side.
Schiff is promoting Harvey because he doesn't want to face Porter in a primary. Schiff knows he'd win handiky if running against a republican.
It's cold calculus and it's what he's doing (according to Porter).
The Dems aren't making a mess. Stop being Chicken Little and read more deeply on things.
Harvey will never win in a statewide election. Schiff would rather face him, therefore, and has helped that along.
Yeah this move actually makes perfect strategic sense in a jungle primary. I would prefer Porter win but Schiff is making the correct campaign move.
