Senators Alex Padilla and Adam Schiff are significantly funding their campaigns with $6.6 million and $6.3 million on hand respectively despite not facing re-election for another few years. With previous spending in California’s Senate races exceeding $141 million, both senators understand the necessity of early fundraising. The current political landscape in California, where no Republican has won a statewide election since 2006, suggests that incumbents must prepare for competitive races with possibly well-funded challengers, making their cash reserves crucial for future political battles.
Sen. Alex Padilla currently holds $6.6 million for future campaign needs, while fellow Senator Adam Schiff has $6.3 million, both preparing for an expensive election.
With past California Senate races costing over $140 million, incumbents like Padilla and Schiff must remain well-funded to face potential opponents.
