FINAL CALIFORNIA ELECTION RETURNS / CONGRESS
Key to Election Tables
* An asterisk (*) denotes an incumbent candidate; a dagger (**) denotes an appointed incumbent.
* A double dagger (***) indicates a race where a runoff election will be held between the top two candidates if no one receives more than half of the vote.
* Elected candidates and approved measures--or those leading with 99% of precincts reporting--are in bold type. Runoff elections may be required in nonpartisan races where no candidate receives over 50% of the vote. Results are not official and could be affected by absentee ballots.
* For primary races, candidates are grouped by party; for other races, party affiliation is indicated in parentheses:
(A) American Independent
(D) Democrat
(G) Green
(I) Independent
(N) Natural Law
(P) Peace and Freedom
(M) Reform
(R) Republican
* 0% indicates returns were unavailable at edition time or only absentee ballots had been counted.
* District locations are identified by county. In Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego and Ventura counties, they are identified by community.
* Uncontested local offices are not included in the tables.
