Two-thirds of voters in California believe that Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) is no longer fit to serve them in the Senate. A poll from the UC Berkeley Institute of Government Studies, sponsored by the Los Angeles Times, found that 67 percent of registered voters agreed with the statement: “Feinstein’s latest illness underlines the fact that she is no longer fit to continue serving in the U.S. Senate.” Twenty percent disagreed. Feinstein, 89, entered the Senate in 1992 after a decade as mayor of San Francisco and has been re-elected five times. She took several months off this year because she was suffering from shingles, an absence that stymied Democrats’ attempts to push through multiple judicial nominees. If Feinstein were to resign before her term is up, Gov. Gavin Newsom has said he will name a Black woman to fill the seat.
