SAN FRANCISCO — California Attorney General Kamala Harris will launch her campaign for retiring Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer’s seat Tuesday morning, a source close to Harris told POLITICO.
Her announcement will come one day after Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, an ambitious figure seen as her chief rival, announced that he would not be running for Senate, positioning himself instead to run for governor in 2018. “I know that my head and my heart, my young family’s future, and our unfinished work all remain firmly in the State of California — not Washington D.C,” he said.

Former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villiaraogosa, meanwhile, has said he is “seriously considering” entering the campaign. Tom Steyer, a hedge fund billionaire and environmentalist, is also seen as interested.
Boxer announced last week she wouldn’t seek reelection to the seat she has held since 1992.

What is new about Harris? She's been fucking with gun owners in California for a long, long time.

I honestly don't know a thing about her.

...She is our Attorney General, and you don't know a thing about her?

Max, she has been spitting venom at the idea of shall issue in California despite the 9th circuit judges telling her to fuck off. Her DoJ has been sued over and over again by gun rights organizations AND LOST over a multitude of issues like indefinitely halting DROS for no reason.

She's focused on her anti-gun position to really care about anything else. She'd be no different than Fienstien in the long run. She has a personal crusade against gun rights.
