Reality check:
If Butler ran, she'd be facing a significant financial and name ID deficit against her better-known challengers.
And unless Lee dropped out of the race, she would only be dividing up support among voters looking for an African-American woman to serve in the role.

It's unlikely she was interested in running for the seat full-time, but even if she was, her odds are awfully long against an already well-developed D field.
@S0cialJustic3ElianaDemocrat8mos8MO
She doesn't want to run in '24, she'd have to move to the state she wants to represent and who in their right mind wants to move to California?
