California congresswoman tries to dab during U.S. Senate debate
Rep. Loretta Sanchez really wants that young vote.
In an probable attempt to court millennial voters, Orange County Rep. Loretta Sanchez closed her argument in the debate between California's two candidates to replace Barbara Boxer in the U.S. Senate Wednesday night -- with an attempt at a dab.
As you likely know, the dab is a dance move made popular by Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton. While moderator Marc Brown interrupted Rep. Sanchez a few times, urging her to wrap up so that her opponent, Attorney General Kamala Harris, could begin her portion of the debate, Sanchez wanted a memorable ending. But rather than a mic drop, the move seemed more like a sad trombone.
