California Senate Race Shapes Up After Rough Primary
The November battle for U.S. Senate pits Democratic incumbent Sheri Dan Downey against Republican Lt. Gov. Frederick Houser with Downey ahead by about 630,000 votes and Houser likely surpassing 450,000. Cross filing produced near parity in Democratic and Republican tallies, while presidential race momentum could tilt turnout.
