Schiff v Garvey will likely draw more Rethugs voters out than Schiff v Porter would have. Those extra Rethug

[Celerity]

56. I voted for Porter as well, partly to keep Garvey out. And any dollar the Rethugs spend on Garvey

very likely raises Rethug turnout statewide, which helps the US House Rethugs, plus, Garvey will go and campaign with them, especially in swingy CA US House districts.

In my heart of hearts, I wanted to vote for Laphonza Butler, as Barbara Lee waited too long to run (at most she would last 2 terms, due to age) and I really want to see more of my fellow black female Dems in the Senate, but alas, a vote for either Butler or Lee was not a realistic choice in terms of winning, so I defaulted to Porter (in vain, it turns out).

I want Angela Alsobrooks to win the Senate seat in MD, but unfortunately, atm, it looks like the No Labels Problem Solver David Trone will win the Dem primary there.

At least Lisa Blunt Rochester is very likely to win the Delaware US Senate seat and will become only the 3rd black female US Senator in American history (after Carol Moseley Braun and of course, Kamala Harris).
