Katie Porter, Adam Schiff and Barbara Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Republican with perhaps the best chance to unite GOP primary voters is former baseball star Steve Garvey, whose campaign has paired a glory-days nostalgia with relatively moderate positions on issues like guns and abortion. To continue his rise in the polls and crack the top two, Garvey must now find a way to “cannibalize” conservative votes, said Mark DiCamillo, poll director for the Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies, which released \u003ca href=\"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/39s2g21k\">new polling numbers\u003c/a> on Friday.[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Kristin Olsen, California Strategies\"]‘I’m not sure anyone can unite the party right now. But I do think [Garvey] may have a better shot than most because of the fame and charisma.’[/pullquote]“He would need to become the favorite among all Republicans in order to get himself higher in the polls,” DiCamillo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the \u003ca href=\"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/39s2g21k\">IGS\u003c/a> poll, Porter stands at 17%, with Schiff at 16% and Garvey at 10%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A former All-Star and World Series champion who played for the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres, Garvey is the highest-profile Republican to launch a Senate run in California since former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina’s unsuccessful bid more than a decade ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Garvey, who \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11963999/baseball-legend-steve-garvey-launches-bid-for-feinsteins-senate-seat\">waited until October to officially launch his campaign\u003c/a>, now faces a sprint to introduce himself to voters, raise money and fend off two other Republicans in the race: businessman James Bradley and attorney Eric Early.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just getting a candidate on the November ballot will be an uphill battle for Republicans in the Senate race. California has a top-two primary system, which means voters can select any candidate, regardless of political party. Only 24% of voters in the state are registered as Republicans, and the party has struggled to make inroads with independent and moderate voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thus far, Republicans have divided their votes among the top three GOP contenders in the Senate race, which could dilute the Republican vote and complicate the GOP path to the general election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Garvey still sits outside of the top two, some of the underlying numbers are encouraging for him. Not only has he leaped ahead of Bradley (7%) and Early (4%) among likely voters, but he is the top choice among voters who identified as “strongly conservative” or “somewhat conservative.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most importantly, Garvey — known as “Mr. Clean” during his playing days — appears to have room to grow. The IGS poll found that roughly a third of voters who identify as “strongly conservative” or “somewhat conservative” are undecided in the race — compared with just one in five “somewhat liberal” or “strongly liberal” voters who are undecided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kristin Olsen, a former Republican leader in the state Assembly, said the recent speakership fight in Congress shows the challenge of uniting fractious GOP constituencies around a common purpose. But she said Garvey, due to his career on the baseball diamond, has the advantage of being well-liked and better known than the other Republicans in the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not sure anyone can unite the party right now,” said Olsen, now a partner at the consulting firm California Strategies. “But I do think he may have a better shot than most because of the fame and charisma.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garvey, who has never run for public office, could face headwinds over some of the positions he has staked out early in the campaign, which seem antithetical to the party’s right-wing base. He \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11963999/baseball-legend-steve-garvey-launches-bid-for-feinsteins-senate-seat\">told KQED in October that he opposes a national ban on abortion\u003c/a>, a view in line with the majority of California voters, who last year \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/abortion-us-supreme-court-health-california-89310197d2b3bd3e3ba806620dd2bdbb\">approved a constitutional amendment protecting reproductive rights\u003c/a> in the state. On gun safety, he supports waiting periods and “very stringent background checks” for gun purchases.[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"senate-2024\"]Bradley and Early, meanwhile, have run campaigns more closely aligned to the conservative views held by their party’s grassroots. Bradley, who ran for Senate in 2018 and 2022, has vowed to target critical race theory and support “deep state investigations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Early, a staunch Donald Trump supporter, who ran for state attorney general in 2018 and 2022, is aiming to outflank Garvey among the party faithful. He has already picked up endorsements from county Republican parties from Yolo to Santa Barbara, and on Tuesday, he nabbed the support of the California Republican Assembly, the state’s oldest grassroots GOP organization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Garvey moving to the center, let’s say, runs the risk of losing Republican voters, or certainly some Republican voters, to someone who is tacking to the right, which is what Early seems to be doing,” said Darry Sragow, publisher of the California Target Book, a nonpartisan election guide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sragow said Garvey can’t afford to turn off members of the party base.

California has a top-two primary system, which means voters can select any candidate, regardless of political party. Only 24% of voters in the state are registered as Republicans, and the party has struggled to make inroads with independent and moderate voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thus far, Republicans have divided their votes among the top three GOP contenders in the Senate race, which could dilute the Republican vote and complicate the GOP path to the general election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Garvey still sits outside of the top two, some of the underlying numbers are encouraging for him. Not only has he leaped ahead of Bradley (7%) and Early (4%) among likely voters, but he is the top choice among voters who identified as “strongly conservative” or “somewhat conservative.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most importantly, Garvey — known as “Mr. Clean” during his playing days — appears to have room to grow. The IGS poll found that roughly a third of voters who identify as “strongly conservative” or “somewhat conservative” are undecided in the race — compared with just one in five “somewhat liberal” or “strongly liberal” voters who are undecided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kristin Olsen, a former Republican leader in the state Assembly, said the recent speakership fight in Congress shows the challenge of uniting fractious GOP constituencies around a common purpose. But she said Garvey, due to his career on the baseball diamond, has the advantage of being well-liked and better known than the other Republicans in the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not sure anyone can unite the party right now,” said Olsen, now a partner at the consulting firm California Strategies. “But I do think he may have a better shot than most because of the fame and charisma.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garvey, who has never run for public office, could face headwinds over some of the positions he has staked out early in the campaign, which seem antithetical to the party’s right-wing base.
