What to expect: The top two candidates in this primary will advance to the general election in November, regardless of party affiliation. Most Californians vote by mail, and ballots postmarked on or before Election Day have one week to arrive. In the 2024 primary, about half of results were reported by 5 a.m. Eastern time the day after the election. It took 10 days before 95 percent of results were reported.

U.S. House

California’s congressional boundaries were redrawn last year after voters approved a map designed to favor Democrats.

Representative Kevin Kiley, a Republican turned independent, faces an uphill battle in a newly redrawn Sacramento-area district. A host of Democrats, including Richard Pan, a physician and former state legislator, and Thien Ho, Sacramento County’s district attorney, are running against him.

In the San Francisco contest to replace Representative Nancy Pelosi, the former speaker who is retiring, State Senator Scott Wiener is the front-runner. But he faces challengers from his left, most notably Saikat Chakrabarti, a former chief of staff for Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Connie Chan, a member of the city’s Board of Supervisors.

Representative David Valadao, a Central Valley Republican, is running for re-election in a district that became even more vulnerable after redistricting. His two main opponents are Randy Villegas, a progressive backed by Senator Bernie Sanders, and Jasmeet Bains, a more moderate Democratic state lawmaker and physician.

Two Republican incumbents, Representatives Young Kim and Ken Calvert, were drawn into the same district by Proposition 50. They are fighting for political survival but face a number of Democrats — including Esther Kim Varet, an art dealer — who could split the vote and ensure both Republicans advance to November.

Democrats hope to gain this district, made newly competitive by Proposition 50. When Representative Darrell Issa, a Republican targeted by redistricting, elected to retire, Republicans endorsed Jim Desmond, a county supervisor. The main Democratic candidates are Ammar Campa-Najjar, a longtime local candidate, and Marni von Wilpert, a San Diego councilwoman.
