Schiff spoke with reporters saying there is a lot at stake in this election for both his race and at the top of the ticket for the presidential race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.

Schiff is considered a favorite to win the seat in Democrat-heavy California, but both he and Garvey each earned about one-third of the vote during the March primary election.
