<p>A <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/california" target="_blank" rel="noopener">California</a> Democrat running to replace Rep. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hot-potatoes-and-insults-fly-in-report-detailing-allegations-from-katie-porters-messy-divorce" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Katie Porter</a> (D-CA) in the House as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/embattled-democrat-announces-bid-for-senate-seat-dianne-feinstein-hasnt-vacated" target="_blank" rel="noopener">she vies for a Senate</a> seat apologized on Wednesday for drunk driving.</p>
<p>&#8220;Last night I was cited for a misdemeanor for driving under the influence,&#8221; state Sen. Dave Min said in a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/daveminca" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post on Facebook</a>. &#8220;My decision to drive last night was irresponsible. I accept full responsibility and there is no excuse for my actions.”</p>
<p>&#8220;To my family, constituents and supporters, I am so deeply sorry,&#8221; he added. &#8220;I know I need to do better. I will not let this personal failure distract from our work in California and in Washington.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Los Angeles Times <a href="https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-05-03/california-lawmaker-dave-min-arrested-drunk-driving-congress#:~:text=Min%20said%20in%20a%20social,no%20excuse%20for%20my%20actions." target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> the Sheriff&#8217;s Department confirmed that the California Highway Patrol arrested Min, and records show he was released from Sacramento County jail on Wednesday.</p>
<p>Min, a former business law professor at UC Irvine, lost a 2018 primary bid for the U.S. House seat that Porter went on to win that year in the <a href="https://rollcall.com/2018/05/24/could-negative-campaigning-in-california-primaries-dampen-democratic-energy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">midst of a heated campaign</a>. Min then ran and got elected to the state Senate in 2020.</p>
<p>Shortly after Porter announced in January a campaign to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dianne-feinstein-not-running-for-re-election-in-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">succeed Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA)</a>, who does not plan to seek re-election, Min <a href="https://voiceofoc.org/2023/01/state-sen-dave-min-announces-run-for-katie-porters-house-seat/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">declared his candidacy</a> for Porter’s seat in Orange County.</p>
<p>Min&#8217;s campaign website touts the state senator&#8217;s legislative record featuring bills focused on &#8220;bold and aggressive gun violence prevention,&#8221; the climate, and more.</p>
<p>&#8220;A first-generation Korean-American, Dave is running for Congress to create a better California for the children of Orange County — one that reflects our core values of diversity, tolerance, and opportunity that drew his parents and millions of others like them to this country in search of a better life,&#8221; <a href="https://davemin.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the website notes</a>. &#8220;Dave isn’t afraid to take on Trumpian Republicans and their dangerous policies, and works tirelessly every day to create an economy and community that uplift Orange County families.&#8221;</p>

<p>Porter <a href="https://davemin.com/news/announcement" target="_blank" rel="noopener">endorsed</a> Min to replace her, saying Min has &#8220;proven that he can win in this area while delivering on a progressive agenda with real results.&#8221;</p>
<p>Besides Porter, two other prominent House Democrats — Reps. Adam Schiff and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/barbara-lee-announces-bid-for-dianne-feinsteins-senate-seat" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Barbara Lee</a> — have announced campaigns to replace Feinstein in the Senate.</p>
<p>A number of people have announced campaigns for Porter’s seat in the 2024 race. Among them is former state Assembly member <a href="https://twitter.com/ScottBaughCA47/status/1643362854383538176" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Scott Baugh</a>, a Republican. Another contender had been former Rep. Harley Rouda (D-CA), but he announced last month that he was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ex-dem-lawmaker-drops-re-election-bid-over-brain-injury" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ending his bid</a> to get back into Congress because of a brain injury.</p>
