Gavin Newsom Endorses Evan Low in Tight California Congressional Race

The endorsement comes as Assemblyman Evan Low and former Mayor Sam Liccardo compete for a pivotal seat in Silicon Valley.

California Governor Gavin Newsom has endorsed Assemblyman Evan Low in the competitive race for California’s 16th Congressional District.
The race is between two Democrats, Evan Low and former San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo, vying to replace retiring Rep. Anna Eshoo.
Newsom's endorsement highlights Low's track record on issues like reproductive rights and affordability, aiming to sway undecided voters.
Liccardo, however, has secured endorsements from notable figures such as current and former Assembly leadership, emphasizing his local support.
Political analysts question the timing of Newsom's endorsement, suggesting it may have limited impact this close to Election Day.
