6:04 am
working on the senate side when she was on the senate side is working on the house side. >> okay. so very uncomfortable moment for adam schiff hold palestinian protesters interrupted his victory speech interrupted his victory speech last night after he advanced raced to succeed. late senator dianne feinstein, schiff and republican steve garvey, as we said, are going to face off in november's general election. the ap is. >> i'm projecting that they both succeeded in and eclipsing representative katie porter and representative barbara correspondent eytan wallace with that story. >> well, what these results you have to imagine republicans, steve garvey is one happy camper, but perhaps even happier democrat adam schiff. this is exactly what he wanted. here they are. garvey was pulling neck and neck with shift leading up to election day or vine. democratic congressmember katie porter had been pulling 3rd in this race and oakland democratic our summer. barbara lee have been pulling in 4th. all 4 of them addressed

6:06 am
>> obviously not the result. katie porter and hoped for. but this is shift one of things to go. he spent millions of dollars on advertisements, touting garbage, conservative views, trying to bring him into the spotlight in hopes of facing garvey in the runoff. that's because in california registered democrats outnumber registered republicans by about 2 to one. that's why adam schiff is confident he can beat garvey in the november general election. but garvey says he will put up a fight reporting in sacramento. i'm a tom wallace. now back to you in san francisco, voters have passed proposition e so that measure advanced police policies that could make it easier to fight crime in the city. kron four's. michael thomas is live at city hall with the latest. good morning, michael. >> good morning, the passing of proposition e essentially we'll get them. francisco police a little bit more power and really resources to deal with the crime and open drug use of the city's been saying. we also may see a little bit more police chases has now it
