Democratic candidate Rep. Adam Schiff and Republican candidate Steve Garvey emerged victorious in California’s U.S. Senate race, setting up a general election for November.

“I woke up one morning and decided to see if there’s a pathway to run for the U. S. Senate,” he added.

He told Fox that his campaign has been active as he attempts to connect with voters all across the state

“We’ve been actively, over the first probably four months after making that decision, talking to significant people that I trust in the world of politics and then going around California, talking to the people in the north, coastal and central California, and also down south where we are,” the one-time National League MVP said.

Garvey played 14 years for the Dodgers and another five for the San Diego Padres between 1969 and 1987.
