Michelle Steel has advanced to defend her Orange County seat in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steel, a South Korean immigrant who has been in Congress since 2020, represents a district drawn to give Asian Americans a stronger voice in Washington. It’s home to the nation’s largest Vietnamese community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was not yet clear who Steel would face in the general election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats Derek Tran, the son of Vietnamese refugees, and Kim Nguyen-Penaloza, the daughter of a Vietnamese refugee father, and two others were trailing Steel.

Republican Matt Gunderson, an auto dealer, was leading a trio of other GOP challengers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters chose Levin in 2018 to replace longtime Republican Darrell Issa, who has since returned to Congress in a neighboring district. Levin has since been reelected twice — by 6 percentage points in 2020 and 5 points in 2022.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think we’ve built the best ground operation of any congressional campaign in the United States,” Levin said in a video posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>District 27: A Republican tries to hang on in liberal Los Angeles\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Republican U.S. Rep. Mike Garcia has advanced to the November general election, where he’ll defend his position as the last GOP House member anchored in Los Angeles County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia has won the seat repeatedly despite a sizeable advantage for registered Democratic voters in the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Tonight’s results are a testament to the fact that our mission and message is resonating with CA-27: Ensure the security of California families,” Garcia said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His main competition was from Democrat George Whitesides, who was leading another Democrat in the count. A former NASA chief of staff, Whitesides, has campaigned on abortion rights and environmental protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garcia gets help from both his background as a former Navy fighter pilot and his surname, which comes from his Mexican immigrant father and is familiar in a district with a significant Latino population.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>District 41: A veteran Republican defends his seat\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Republican U.S. Rep. Ken Calvert has advanced to defend his seat in November and will face off against Democrat Will Rollins.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Calvert is the longest-serving Republican in the California congressional delegation, having held his seat in this district east of Los Angeles since 1993. He won by about 5 percentage points in 2022 in a district that is about equally split between Republican and Democratic voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rollins, a former federal prosecutor who lost to Calvert in 2022, gets another chance this year. As a gay man, Rollins could garner significant support in Palm Springs, which has a sizable LGBTQ+ population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Gavin Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At last count, 53% of voters supported the measure, which will fund new treatment facilities and earmark existing mental health funding for housing. That’s with about 38% of votes tallied. It passes with a majority vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom crafted Proposition 1 to focus on a specific subset of Californians experiencing homelessness: those with severe mental health or substance abuse challenges. The governor called it the last piece of his reforms to programs at the intersection of homelessness and behavioral health — following the creation of a civil court system that allows judges to order people into treatment and housing for residents with severe mental illness, and a subsequent expansion of the state’s conservatorship law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 1 included a $6.38 billion bond to fund the construction of residential care facilities and supportive housing — including apartments with wrap-around services dedicated for veterans. It also would changed the Mental Health Services Act, approved by voters in 2004, by shifting money from California counties and mental health service providers toward the construction of housing and care facilities.

The governor called it the last piece of his reforms to programs at the intersection of homelessness and behavioral health — following the creation of a civil court system that allows judges to order people into treatment and housing for residents with severe mental illness, and a subsequent expansion of the state’s conservatorship law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 1 included a $6.38 billion bond to fund the construction of residential care facilities and supportive housing — including apartments with wrap-around services dedicated for veterans. It also would changed the Mental Health Services Act, approved by voters in 2004, by shifting money from California counties and mental health service providers toward the construction of housing and care facilities.

She announced in February that she is \u003ca href=\"https://shastascout.org/shasta-county-registrar-of-voters-will-retire-in-may/\">retiring in May due to health issues\u003c/a> — and reducing stress is essential to recovery.

Some counties that have opted into the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/voters-choice-act/more-days-more-ways\">Voter’s Choice Act\u003c/a>, which extends in-person voting to 10 days, say shorter shifts and fewer locations make it easier to hire staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s also money:\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>In San Bernardino County, funding to increase stipends for poll workers and to hire additional full-time staff has helped.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The election cycle and election preparation is a very stressful environment, with a lot of work in a small amount of time,” said Stephanie Shea, the county’s registrar of voters. “We’ve been fortunate that the board has approved additional positions that have helped us with our preparation for our elections.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the November 2022 election, the county had about 2,300 poll workers. For this year’s primary, it recruited more than 2,500. [aside label='More on California Elections' tag='elections']And in Kings County — where the county elections office is fully staffed for the first time since 2019 — Registrar of Voters Lupe Villa said he believes more people are looking for work now compared to 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But while safety seems to be less of a concern for election worker recruitment, incidents such as the suspicious envelopes and packages sent to Yuba, Los Angeles and Sacramento elections offices show the danger hasn’t entirely subsided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No staff were harmed in any of those cases. In January, the secretary of state’s office said it sent guidance to all counties on safety protocols and coordination with local, state and federal authorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joe Kocurek, spokesperson for the secretary of state’s office, said Thursday there were no updates on the status of the three investigations that law enforcement agencies are handling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response to these incidents, county officials said they have trained employees to administer Narcan — an opioid overdose treatment — and stock gloves and masks to handle mail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Sacramento, at least, the scare didn’t seem to hamper the county’s ability to recruit workers for the primary. It has recruited 1,400 workers — including many who helped in prior elections, said Kenneth Casparis, a spokesperson for the county.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite improvement statewide, some counties in California continue to face challenges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mono County has struggled to recruit and retain both temporary elections staff and poll workers — even after increasing pay to the minimum wage, said Queenie Barnard, Mono County’s clerk-recorder-registrar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11977756\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11977756 size-full\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/CMPollWorkers02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1334\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/CMPollWorkers02.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/CMPollWorkers02-800x534.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/CMPollWorkers02-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/CMPollWorkers02-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/CMPollWorkers02-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/CMPollWorkers02-1920x1281.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A voter fills out their ballot at a polling station at the American Legion in Shasta Lake, California, during a special election in Shasta County on Nov. 7, 2023. \u003ccite>(Fred Greaves/CalMatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>And in Shasta, where \u003ca href=\"https://assets01.aws.connect.clarityelections.com/Assets/Connect/RootPublish/shasta-ca.connect.clarityelections.com/Election%20Results%202000-Present/2020/1103/Full%20SOV.SHASTA.11.3.2020.pdf\">Donald Trump won 65% of the vote in 2020\u003c/a>, not much has changed, said Joanna Francescut, the assistant registrar of voters.

And while elections aren’t perfect, “it doesn’t add up to widespread fraud, and I think people know that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recent state laws, such as one in 2022 that \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220SB1131\">allows election workers to shield their addresses from the public\u003c/a>, haven’t had a noticeable impact yet, according to election officials throughout the state.

Conservative activists, who forced a recall election in 2021, announced earlier this week that they are launching a new effort to remove him from office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though the 2021 recall was ultimately rejected by nearly 62% of voters, the campaign caught many Democrats by surprise. This time around, Newsom wanted to sound the alarm bells early.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"California Gov. Gavin Newsom\"]‘I don’t dismiss these things lightly at all. I take this one very, very seriously.’[/pullquote]“If it happens, we’ll take it on with a furiousness of purpose, meaning [and] mission that we took on the last one,” he told hosts Scott Shafer and Marisa Lagos, who recorded the interview in Sacramento. “I don’t dismiss these things lightly at all. I take this one very, very seriously.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Catch up fast: \u003c/strong>Leaders of Rescue California, one of the leading political committees behind the 2021 recall, announced Monday that they served Newsom with official recall papers, the first step toward putting the recall question on the ballot. “Gavin Newsom has abandoned the state to advance his Presidential ambitions, leaving behind a $73 Billion budget deficit and a public safety, immigration and education crisis,” Anne Dunsmore, Rescue California’s campaign director, said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The context: \u003c/strong>Rescue California could soon begin collecting signatures from voters to qualify the recall on a future ballot. The group would need signatures from roughly 1.3 million registered voters, one of the lowest thresholds in America but still a tall order. The fact remains that \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/recalls/complete-list-recall-attempts\">most recall attempts fail to qualify for the ballot\u003c/a>. And the last Newsom recall campaign hit a straight flush when a judge granted the campaign an extension to gather voter signatures, just weeks after Newsom violated his own COVID guidance to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11847570/gov-newsom-went-to-party-violated-own-virus-rules\">attend a birthday party at The French Laundry\u003c/a>, a posh restaurant in Napa County, in 2020. The lapse in judgment galvanized his opponents and spurred support for the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Zoom in:\u003c/strong> Newsom was candid in his assessment of right-wing efforts to kick him out of office, showing why he is a frontline surrogate for President Joe Biden. “They want to roll back to a pre-1960s world — on voting rights, on civil rights, on LGBTQ rights, on women’s rights,” he said. “This is the same group that’s out there promoting the IVF-type legislation. These are the same groups that want to criminalize doctors and women that try to leave the state to access reproductive care. These are the same Trump-backed people that tried to light democracy on fire and vandalize this country and are still in denial that he lost the last election. So these are serious forces, and this is the exact same group that successfully got it on the ballot before, and it doesn’t take a lot to do so.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Zoom out: \u003c/strong>Newsom acknowledged that the last attempt to remove him was widely shrugged off — at least initially. After all, four previous attempts had failed to qualify for the ballot. The 2021 recall ended up being a bruising campaign that Newsom said was particularly challenging for his four children. “I will say, no B.S., that recall for them was hard,” he said. “That’s when it gets personal, and they felt that. They felt it at school, people mocking their dad. They see recall signs and people when you walk into a grocery store or something.

Conservative activists, who forced a recall election in 2021, announced earlier this week that they are launching a new effort to remove him from office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though the 2021 recall was ultimately rejected by nearly 62% of voters, the campaign caught many Democrats by surprise.

I take this one very, very seriously.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Catch up fast: \u003c/strong>Leaders of Rescue California, one of the leading political committees behind the 2021 recall, announced Monday that they served Newsom with official recall papers, the first step toward putting the recall question on the ballot. “Gavin Newsom has abandoned the state to advance his Presidential ambitions, leaving behind a $73 Billion budget deficit and a public safety, immigration and education crisis,” Anne Dunsmore, Rescue California’s campaign director, said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The context: \u003c/strong>Rescue California could soon begin collecting signatures from voters to qualify the recall on a future ballot. The group would need signatures from roughly 1.3 million registered voters, one of the lowest thresholds in America but still a tall order. The fact remains that \u003ca href=\"https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/recalls/complete-list-recall-attempts\">most recall attempts fail to qualify for the ballot\u003c/a>. And the last Newsom recall campaign hit a straight flush when a judge granted the campaign an extension to gather voter signatures, just weeks after Newsom violated his own COVID guidance to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11847570/gov-newsom-went-to-party-violated-own-virus-rules\">attend a birthday party at The French Laundry\u003c/a>, a posh restaurant in Napa County, in 2020. The lapse in judgment galvanized his opponents and spurred support for the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Zoom in:\u003c/strong> Newsom was candid in his assessment of right-wing efforts to kick him out of office, showing why he is a frontline surrogate for President Joe Biden. “They want to roll back to a pre-1960s world — on voting rights, on civil rights, on LGBTQ rights, on women’s rights,” he said. “This is the same group that’s out there promoting the IVF-type legislation. These are the same groups that want to criminalize doctors and women that try to leave the state to access reproductive care. These are the same Trump-backed people that tried to light democracy on fire and vandalize this country and are still in denial that he lost the last election. So these are serious forces, and this is the exact same group that successfully got it on the ballot before, and it doesn’t take a lot to do so.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

After all, four previous attempts had failed to qualify for the ballot. The 2021 recall ended up being a bruising campaign that Newsom said was particularly challenging for his four children. “I will say, no B.S., that recall for them was hard,” he said. “That’s when it gets personal, and they felt that. They felt it at school, people mocking their dad. They see recall signs and people when you walk into a grocery store or something.
