No prominent Republican is vying for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by retiring Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
California’s 2024 primary election is less than a year away, yet no prominent Republican has announced plans to seek California’s open U.S. Senate seat — another sign of the decline of a onetime GOP powerhouse that produced two presidents and four governors in the span of just over a half-century.retiring Sen. Dianne Feinstein
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, pictured on an escalator, announced earlier this year that she would not seek reelection. The party also helped successfully defend GOP Reps. Mike Garcia of Santa Clarita, David Valadao of Hanford and Michelle Steel of Seal Beach in competitive congressional races, aided farmerand nearly ousted Rep. Katie Porter in Orange County, despite the Democrat’s enormous financial edge. Steel and Duarte are scheduled to speak on a dinner panel Saturday evening.
California has the most Republican voters in the nation because of its size, but they are vastly outnumbered by Democrats and roughly on par with voters who decline to express a party preference. “When you’re the minority party, not just in California, when you’re the minority party in any state, you have to much more jealously guard your resources because you don’t have that many,” Brulte said. “I think at the end of day, helping maintain the congressional majority is priority No. 1. Picking up a couple legislative seats would be a good thing as well.”
