Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) is running an ad campaign targeting conservatives to support Republican Steve Garvey over Democratic rivals in the primary.
Schiff’s strategy aims to secure a spot in the general election under California’s “jungle” primary system.
By framing the race as between himself and Garvey, Schiff is rallying Democrats to his side and conservatives to Garvey’s cause.
Ads highlight Garvey’s support for Donald Trump, appealing to conservatives.
This dynamic could potentially benefit Republicans in other congressional races by boosting turnout.
“If he and Porter make the runoff, they are neck-and-neck,” FlashReport editor Jon Fleischman said of Schiff’s battle with Rep. Katie Porter.
