California U.S. Senate Election

A February 28, 2024, Wall Street Journal news article reports, "If Schiff faces Garvey, however, he is virtually guaranteed victory in the heavily Democratic state. No Republican has won statewide office in California since 2006." As of February 20, 2024, Democrats are about 10 million of the state's 22 million registered voters, or less than half. The election is some months away. A lot can happen between now and then. A Republican victory is unlikely, but just because it hasn't happened since 2006 doesn't mean it won't happen ever again. Republicans have recently been winning some competitive House seats in California. The thing about politics is there are no guarantees. Nothing ruins a guarantee like the complacency and corruption that come with one-party governments. They tend eventually to create counterreactions.
