In speeches to their supporters Tuesday night, both candidates talked about the race for the open seat and the future.

Adam Schiff now holds the Senate seat that belonged to Dianne Feinstein for three decades. Surprising no one, the Democratic longtime congressman from Hollywood easily beat Republican and former Los Angeles Dodgers great Steve Garvey tonight.

Garvey, a Republican, and Schiff, a Democrat, vied for the seat long held by the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who died in September 2023. Sen. Laphonza Butler, who was appointed to the seat by Gov. Gavin Newsom, decided not to run for it.
