^ Last precedent for this, IIRC, was when John Garamendi was elected to Congress while serving as LG. From what I gather, Brown would appoint a replacement who would have to be confirmed by the Assembly.

She's not resigning, just retiring at the end of her term.  But I guess you're talking about whoever replaces her.

I think the question was about Harris, not Boxer. Harris' term ends in 2018, ergo, she'd have to resign as AG to be Senator. Boxer would obviously just be retiring.

^ Well, I'm not sure we should extrapolate that much from it. Its just a quirk I wanted to throw out there.

Not that she looked particuarly eager to run, but Karen Bass isn't running.

There's probably more local factors invloved here, but I don't think this is good for Villaraigosa:

GHY poll:

Swearingin (R)- 31%
Harris (D)- 28%
Villaraigosa (D)- 18%

This is a sort of a roundabout way to poll, but instead of running head-to-heads, the Field Poll asked respondents who they'd be 'inclined' to support. Condi (49/39) and Harris (46/37) were the highest overall.

With Democrats, 74% are 'inclined' to support Harris, with Villaraigosa at 57%.

I think she'd be a better candidates for Republicans than Dreier, but Ashley Swearengin isn't running.

^ The GOP doesn't have a demographic situation that's conductive to its (long-term) success, as the Dems do in TX.   

Good call for Swearengin not to run. She would have gotten 40-45% against Harris in almost any outcome.

I don't think this poll deserves its own thread (58% are undecided), but the Field Poll has Harris and Sanchez making a runoff. Harris leads by a whopping 19-8 margin.
