LA Times Endorses Adam Schiff in California Senate Race

Schiff, praised for his leadership against former President Trump, leads in polls against fellow Democrats Barbara Lee and Katie Porter.

  • The Los Angeles Times has endorsed Rep. Adam Schiff for the Senate seat formerly held by the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
  • Schiff is running against Reps. Barbara Lee and Katie Porter, both Democrats, in what is expected to be the most expensive primary campaign in history.
  • The LA Times editorial board praised Schiff for his leadership in protecting the nation’s institutions, the rule of law and American democracy itself from former President Trump.
  • Schiff holds a narrow lead among California voters, with 21 percent backing him, compared to 17 percent for Porter and 7 percent for Lee, according to a Berkeley IGS poll.
  • The primary is set for March 5, on Super Tuesday, and the top two candidates on the ballot will advance to the general election, regardless of party affiliation.
