SAN FRANCISCO -- The death of Sen. Dianne Feinstein leaves a political vacuum in Washington and Gov. Gavin Newsom is facing pressure by supporters of Congresswoman Barbara Lee to appoint her to the interim Senate seat.
That puts Newsom in a tough spot because Lee, who is already running for the office, is currently trailing two other Democrats, Adam Schiff and Katie Porter, in the primary race. The governor sparked outrage among Lee supporters when he made comments on NBC'sthat indicated he would abide by his pledge to name a Black women but would only appoint that person as a caretaker to finish out the term.
Dianne Feinstein is credited with saving San Francisco's cable cars and, on Saturday at the Powell Street turnaround, people mused about the dilemma of finding her replacement.
