In the heavily Democratic 33rd District in Southern California, progressive stalwart Henry Waxman is retiring after 40 years. In a surprise upset, a Republican landed the most votes: Elan Carr. In the 11th District, rival Democrats kindly stepped aside for state senator Mark DeSaulniers' bid to replace outgoing Representative George Miller in the East Bay. In the 17th District, hugging Silicon Valley, Congressman Mike Honda won 48 percent of the vote, but he faces a tough run in November against another Democrat, Ro Khanna.
