WASHINGTON — U.S. Rep. Katie Porter, the feisty congresswoman from Orange County, California, is running for Senate. But does anyone north of the Los Angeles area know who she is? Does she have a chance?
And will the incumbent, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, run again?
Porter, 49, last week became the first Democrat to formally enter the race. Feinstein, who will be 91 on Election Day 2024, has had memory problems and decided not to become Senate President Pro Tem, which would have put her third in line for the presidency.
