Simitian, who has been eyeing a congressional run for years, has been losing ground to Low over the last week.
Evan Low, Assemblymember , shows his gratitude as he appears at an election night party Tuesday, March 5, 2024, in Cupertino, Calif. While San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo has locked in his place in the November general election in the race to replace U.S. Rep. Anna Eshoo, Assemblymember Evan Low continues to close the gap on Santa Clara County Supervisor Joe Simitian for the second spot.
But late mail-in ballots counted in Santa Clara County have trended more towards Low, whose Assembly district includes Sunnyvale, Cupertino, Santa Clara and parts of north and west San Jose. At this stage in the counting, the local political analyst said that “forecasting a winner is very dangerous.” Gerston called the margin between the two a “blink of an eyelash,” and predicted that the second winner won’t be declared until the end of this week or early next week.
Simitian declared victory on election night, stating that he was “entirely confident” he was heading to the runoff because the “margin is wide enough.”“We have a healthy margin given 11 candidates,” he said. “I have been in the top two since election night when the results were reported and have been in the top two every day.”
