Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez, one of two Democratic candidates for the California U.S. Senate seat, talks with a reporter at Cocina Cortes in Chico on Friday. The race for the California Senate seat this year is an unusual one, with two Democrats running against each other for the first time, and two minority women at that, to replace retiring fourth-term Sen. Barbara Boxer.
With less than three months until Election Day, Loretta Sanchez is running out of time to narrow the gap with front-runner Kamala Harris in California's U.S. Senate race.

A month after crushing her contenders in the primary, Attorney General Kamala Harris is still the clear favorite among California voters over Rep.

The bedrock of Kamala Harris's U.S. Senate campaign has been her record as California attorney general and as San Francisco district attorney. She has said her experience in those posts provides ample proof that she is the best and most qualified candidate to represent California in Washington.

Hey Californians, here are your options to replace retiring Sen. Barbara Boxer in the U.S. Senate come the fall: You can vote for a Democratic progressive liberal currently serving as the state's attorney general, Kamala Harris; or you can vote for a Democratic progressive liberal 10-term member of the House of Representatives, Rep.
