Jones, meanwhile, was left without a political home, and decided to run in the state’s 10th district instead. But the progressive vote there is split between Councilwoman Carlina Rivera, Assemblywoman Yuh-Line Niou, former Representative Elizabeth Holtzman and Jones, among others. That potentially creates an opening for the decidedly more moderate (and self-funded) Daniel Goldman, heir to the Levi Strauss fortune, who served as a Democratic attorney in Trump’s first impeachment.
