A new LA Times poll shows that Reps. Katie Porter and Adam Schiff "are nearly tied and hold a strong early lead ahead of two other hopefuls." That’s a GREAT showing for Katie Porter, who didn’t enter the race with millions in corporate PAC contributions like Schiff.
The poll shows Katie especially popular among younger voters, leading Schiff by more than 2-1 among voters in the 20-29 and 30-39 age groups.
Good news: 40% of the voters polled were still undecided. That means there's tons of potential to reach and persuade millions of undecided voters.
Bad news: As the LA Times points out, California is a very expensive state to campaign in, so candidates like Schiff who have taken millions from corporate PACs over his career are at an advantage.

Californians deserve a true progressive like Katie Porter -- not an establishment favorite who’s taken millions in contributions from big corporate interests.
Katie Porter has won her red district 3 times by challenging Trumpism and holding corporations that cheat Americans accountable. Adam Schiff has served 23 years in Congress as part of the conservative Blue Dog Caucus, which has pushed painful cuts for working families. Unlike Katie, Schiff has taken tens of millions in corporate PAC money—from Big Oil, Big Pharma, Wall Street, and high-priced lobbyists.
And while the nation has watched Adam Schiff give good speeches and have good MSNBC appearances, a new book reveals that Schiff consistently stalled and undermined bold leaders who were trying to hold Trump accountable.
When Democrats should have gone big against Trump, Schiff said go small. When we should have gone fast, Schiff said go slow. When we should have slowed down to do more accountability, Schiff cut corners to get impeachment over with.
And when bold leaders finally won consensus to pursue impeachment over Schiff's objections, Schiff leapt on stage to take credit.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
