The winners of Districts 2, 4 and 5 will join a five-member board that oversees a county of about 10 million residents, more than the population of most states.
A Note On The Results
OFFICIAL RESULTS
The California Secretary of State's Office certified the final vote tallies on April 12, marking an official end to the March 5, 2024 Primary Election.
Voter Game Plan will be back in the fall to help you prepare for the Nov. 5 General Election.
District 2
The District 2 race is the first since the district’s new boundaries were finalized in late 2021. One critical issue in much of District 2 is housing affordability, as once-affordable communities like Inglewood rapidly gentrify. Homelessness, public safety, and transportation are also key here, as are issues of equity and access to services.
