Overview and Alive Results: California Congressional District 22, Other Special Elections

By 270toWin Staff - April five, 2022, 4:46 PM ET

This week, we're tracking a number of special elections, highlighted by the all-political party principal for a vacant congressional commune in California. At that place are legislative races in California, Georgia, and Pennsylvania. On the municipal front end, voters in Milwaukee will elect a mayor.

Congressional Special Primary Election

California District 22

This seat has been open up since the start of the 117th Congress in January. Republican Devin Nunes vacated the seat to lead Trump Media & Engineering science Group.

In California, all candidates appear on a single primary ballot. In regular elections, the elevation two advance to the general election. This is too the instance in special elections, unless one candidate gets a majority of the primary vote. In that instance, they are elected. If a special general election is needed, that will take place on June 7, the same date as the statewide primary.

There are four Republicans and two Democrats on the master election. The frontrunner appears to be Republican Connie Conway, a former member of the State Assembly. Polls shut at 11:00 PM Eastern Time.

There's a expert chance that the winner of the special election will merely serve in Congress until the cease of the year. California is losing a district, and the current District 22 is essentially being eliminated, its current borders largely folded into the new Districts 5, twenty and 21.

Iii participants in Tuesday'southward election - 2 Republicans and one Democrat - have entered the June 7 primary in the new District 21. Democrat Jim Costa (electric current CA-16) is running equally the incumbent. While it is likely that one of the special election Republicans will advance with Costa, the district has been fabricated safer for Democrats in redistricting.

The other 3 entrants in the special ballot - including Conway, the frontrunner - did not file for whatever seats in the regular 2022 election.

State Legislative Special General Elections

Georgia State House District 45

Republicans hold a 102-77 edge over Democrats in the Georgia State House. Members serve two yr terms; the side by side regular elections are in November. These will be contested using redistricted boundaries.

District 45 is located in Atlanta'southward northern suburbs. Republican Matt Dollar resigned in Feb to have some other position. Dollar was unopposed when first elected in 2012 and didn't face a challenger until 2018. That year, he won by nearly 20% over his Democratic foe; that gap narrowed to 10 points in 2020.

Of Tuesday's 7 Land House special elections and primaries, this one is likely to exist the most competitive from a political party control perspective.

In Georgia, special elections include all candidates from all parties. In this race, there are three Republicans and one Democrat. If no candidate gets a bulk of the vote, the summit two finishers will meet in a May 3 runoff.

Polls close at vii:00 PM Eastern Time.

District 24: Located just due east of Commune nineteen, the prior incumbent, Ed Gainey was elected Mayor of Pittsburgh this past November. Although Republicans haven't contested this district over the past decade, they do have a candidate in the special ballot. Maybe reflecting a very thin bench for the party in this part of the country, that nominee, Todd Koger, ran for this seat as a Democrat in both 2022 and 2018. The Democratic nominee is Martell Covington.

District 116: This district sits west of Wilkes-Barre. It was last represented by Republican Tarah Toohil. She resigned at the end of 2022 subsequently being elected equally a judge on the Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas.

Louisiana Shapes Added to House Map; Redistricting Update

By 270toWin Staff - April 1, 2022, 8:28 AM ET

Louisiana:Disallowment whatever changes from expected litigation, congressional redistricting in Louisiana is complete. On March thirty, the Republican-controlled Legislature overrode the veto of Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards. The new district shapes have been added to the 2022 House Interactive Map.

The new map largely maintained the status quo of the last decade, which translates to v seats for Republicans and one for Democrats. None of these are competitive from a party control perspective. Democrats, led by Edwards, had wanted the new map to include a second majority-minority district given that Blacks now comprise near 33% of the state's population.

New York: On Th, a judge threw out the state's enacted congressional map, calling it a partisan gerrymander in violation of the State Constitution. The conclusion will be appealed. As a stay of the courtroom order is expected while the higher court adjudicates, the district shapes volition remain on the interactive map for the time beingness.

Ohio:It looks like the Legislature'southward second enacted congressional map will stand for the midterm elections, despite information technology beingness only slightly fairer than the one the Supreme Courtroom tossed out in Jan. The court has withal to rule on the new map, and has at present set a timeline for hearing the case that takes whatsoever decision past the state'south May 3 primary. These shapes were previously added to the House Interactive Map.

Remaining States

Four states, with 46 full districts, accept yet to complete congressional redistricting.

State (Districts) Comments
Florida (28) Equally expected, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) vetoed the program sent to him past the Republican-controlled Legislature. DeSantis is convening a special session of The Legislature from Apr 19 to 22 for the sole purpose of coming upward with a new map. The intraparty boxing centers largely around the treatment of Commune 5, a Blackness Opportunity district that stretches across much of the northern part of the state. Gov. Ron DeSantis wants this district made more than compact, effectively eliminating the just Democratic-held district north of the Orlando area. The vetoed programme somewhat acceded to this by consolidating the district effectually Jacksonville. However, it didn't get every bit far as DeSantis wanted.
Maryland (viii) On March 25, a judge invalidated Maryland's previously enacted map, calling it a Democratic gerrymander in violation of the state Constitution. On March 30, the Democratic-controlled Legislature passed a revised plan to meet a tight deadline fix by the Court. It was transmitted to GOP Gov. Larry Hogan on March 31. According to FiveThirtyEight, the new map is much fairer based on their efficiency gap metric. It remains to be seen which (or either) of the 2 maps is enacted. The Court needs to dominion on the new map, while at the same time the State will appeal the prior ruling. The bill (SB1012) passed with the revised map includes a provision that specifies the original map will exist used if the Land wins on entreatment.
Missouri (8) A deadlock in the Republican-controlled Missouri Senate was finally broken, and that bedroom passed a map on March 24. Nonetheless, the land Business firm, which passed its ain plan back in January, rejected the programme. Missouri is the only state remaining where no plan has been enacted or passed by legislators. Information technology is a bit unclear what volition happen adjacent. The state's borderline for the August 2 chief was March 29; candidates filed based on the 2010 boundaries. Withal, a lawsuit has been filed, as congressional districts are required to have equal populations based on the most recent Census.
New Hampshire (2) Gov. Chris Sununu (R) volition veto the congressional map sent to him by the Republican-controlled Legislature. On March 22, he submitted his own plan to the leaders of both legislative chambers. Sununu favors a program that keeps both districts competitive, while the map approved by the legislature makes each of the state's ii districts more than partisan. It made District 1 more favorable for a GOP option-up; the political party has non won a U.S. House seat since 2014.

The number of vacancies will increase to five in the near future, equally ane member from each party has announced his resignation.

An update on each of these districts follows. Special elections volition take identify using the existing commune boundaries; some of them coincide with a regular statewide primary. The 2022 midterm elections (starting with the primaries), will take identify using redistricted boundaries.

Current Vacancies

For more item on the races to fill these seats, read this analysis from Dissever Ticket.

California Commune 22

Republican Devin Nunes resigned in January to lead Trump Media & Technology Grouping. A special primary will be held next Tuesday, Apr 5.

In California, all candidates appear on a unmarried primary ballot. In regular elections, the top two advance to the general ballot. This is also the case in special elections, unless i candidate gets a majority of the primary vote. In that case, they are elected. If a special general ballot is needed, that will take place on June 7, the same date as the statewide chief. There are four Republicans and two Democrats on the primary election.

In that location's a good adventure that the winner of the special election will but serve in Congress until the end of the yr. California is losing a district, and the electric current District 22 is essentially existence eliminated, its electric current borders largely folded into the new Districts 5, 20 and 21.

  • Republican Tom McClintock (current CA-iv) and Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy (current CA-23) are running in Districts five and 20. While both face some opposition in the June vii height ii principal, none of those are participants in the special election.
  • Democrat Jim Costa (current CA-16) is running in Commune 21. His 3 June 7 primary challengers - two Republicans and ane Democrat - are all participants in the special ballot. Costa and one of the Republicans are likely to accelerate in a commune that has been made safer for Democrats in redistricting.
  • The other three entrants in the special election did non file for whatever seats in the regular 2022 election.

Minnesota District 1

Republican Jim Hagedorn died in February. Party primaries will be held May 24, with the general ballot on Baronial ix. That is the engagement of the statewide primary.

A large field - ten Republicans and 8 Democrats - will be seeking their corresponding party nominations.

Commune 1 was largely unchanged in redistricting: Donald Trump had a margin of victory of about 10% over Joe Biden in both configurations.

Alaska At-Large

Republican Don Young, the dean of the U.S. House, died earlier this month. Immature was serving in his 25th term, having been beginning elected in a 1973 special ballot.

A primary ballot will be held on June xi. It will be the starting time conducted under a new system approved past voters in 2020. All candidates from all parties will appear on a unmarried ballot. The top four finishers volition advance to the August sixteen general election, which volition be conducted using ranked pick voting.

Baronial 16 is too the date for the statewide primary.

Upcoming Vacancies

Nebraska District i

Later on being bedevilled of multiple felonies last week, nine-term incumbent Republican Jeff Fortenberry appear his resignation over the weekend. Information technology volition be constructive at the finish of the month.

Fortenberry was indicted last October. In November, he drew a credible Democratic challenger, land Senator Patty Pansing Brooks. In January, land Senator Mike Flood entered the race as an intraparty challenger for the Republican nomination. Although there are other candidates in the primaries, these two are seen equally likely nominees.

The May x statewide main volition occur earlier the special election. A engagement has non nonetheless been set, just information technology will be before the end of June. Nominees for the special election will be selected direct by each party. It would not be surprising to see Pansing Brooks and Overflowing chosen here likewise.

Although Republicans volition be favored to hold the seat, redistricting did make the district slightly more than competitive. Donald Trump had a margin of victory over Joe Biden of xv% nether the old boundaries; that falls to 11% nether the new boundaries.

Texas District 34

Last March, Democrat Filemon Vela became the showtime Democrat this cycle to announce a retirement. Terminal week, Vela said he would go out Congress before the end of his term to bring together a lobbying house.

As Texas has already conducted its statewide principal, this sets upwards an odd situation for a special election, whenever that is held. Vela's retirement coupled with redistricting had pushed Democrat Vincente Gonzalez (current TX-15) to run in the new TX-34. The new TX-34 is safer for a Democrat than the new TX-15.

Vela won the Autonomous nomination and will be the favorite in TX-34 this fall. Nevertheless, every bit the current TX-15 Representative, he won't exist running in the special ballot. Under the old lines, this is a competitive seat - Joe Biden won by simply 4% over Donald Trump in 2020. Republicans are expected to make a strong push to win the special election as a manner to highlight the party's increasing forcefulness in Due south Texas. Their nominee for the November ballot is Mayra Flores. She has already announced her candidacy for a special ballot.

March 28 Congressional Redistricting Update

Past 270toWin Staff - March 28, 2022, 12:30 PM ET

As Maryland returns to the list after a court ruling, five states have nonetheless to consummate congressional redistricting. The Legislature in Florida, Louisiana, and New Hampshire take each passed redistricting bills. However, they have each run into a roadblock from the governor'south office.

In Missouri, Republican infighting in the state Senate was finally overcome late last week, with a compromise map emerging. That gets the process going again. With a Tuesday deadline for candidate filing, information technology is possible the state House acts chop-chop to get the bill to the governor'southward desk-bound.

State (Districts) Comments
Florida (28) The state is gaining a district. No contempo activity. The GOP-controlled Legislature has passed an unusual programme that includes both 'primary' and 'secondary' maps. The major departure is in the treatment of District 5, a Blackness Opportunity district that stretches across much of the northern role of the state. Gov. Ron DeSantis wants this district made more than compact, effectively eliminating the only Democratic-held commune north of the Orlando area. The master map somewhat accedes to this by consolidating the commune around Jacksonville. Even so, information technology doesn't go as far every bit DeSantis wants; he has threatened a veto. The secondary map maintains the general shape of District 5 - although makes it slightly less 'blue'. It is intended every bit a replacement should the primary map be invalidated by the courts as a violation of the Voting Rights Act.
Louisiana (6) On March nine, Gov. John Bel Edwards (D) vetoed the congressional map canonical by the Republican-led Legislature. That map largely maintained the status quo. Democrats, led past Edwards, favor the improver of a 2d majority-minority district given that Blacks now comprise about 33% of the state's population. If the Legislature attempts to override, a 2/three vote in each chamber is required.
Maryland (viii) On March 25, a guess invalidated Maryland's previously enacted map, calling information technology a Democratic gerrymander in violation of the state Constitution. Overall, the map maintained the 7-1 Democratic edge. However, information technology shifted the partisan composition of the sole GOP-held seat significantly to the left, potentially putting it into play.
Missouri (eight) A deadlock in the Republican-controlled Missouri Senate was finally broken, and that sleeping accommodation passed a map on March 24. The map maintains the electric current 6-ii GOP edge. It solidifies the GOP hold on Commune 2, the merely somewhat competitive commune in the country in recent cycles. Some conservatives in the Senate had pushed for a more ambitious map that would have 'cracked' Kansas Urban center, giving the GOP a 7-1 border. The Senate map also included an emergency clause that enables the new map to exist constructive every bit presently as it is signed into law - and thus usable for the August 2 primary. The state House is expected to have up the Senate bill during the week of March 28.
New Hampshire (2) Gov. Chris Sununu (R) will veto the congressional map sent to him by the Republican-controlled Legislature. On March 22, he submitted his own program to the leaders of both legislative chambers. Sununu favors a plan that keeps both districts competitive, while the map approved by the legislature makes each of the state'southward two districts more partisan. Information technology fabricated District one more favorable for a GOP pick-up; the party has not won a U.S. House seat since 2014.
