Caucus backs Sherman over Berman

In the runup to the June primary election, Rep. Brad Sherman beat out Rep. Howard Berman from a Democratic Party endorsing conference on Sunday.
Sherman received 54 percent of the vote, to 36 percent for Berman, with the remaining members saying no endorsement should be given,
Sherman's campaign said the action is the first step needed in winning the full party endorsement.
The two Democratic Party stalwarts are facing off against each other as a result of redistricting where their congressional districts were combined.
