The 2022 California elections took place on November 8, 2022. [1] The statewide direct primary election was held on June 7, 2022. [2]

Contents

California voters elected all of California's seats to the United States House of Representatives, one seat to the United States Senate, all of the seats of the California State Assembly, all even-numbered seats of the California State Senate, and the Governor of California and various statewide offices.

Pursuant to Proposition 14 passed in 2010, California uses a nonpartisan blanket primary for its races. All the candidates for the same elected office, regardless of respective political party, run against each other at once during the primary. The candidates receiving the most and second-most votes in the primary election then become the contestants in the general election.

United States Congress

Senate

Incumbent Democratic senator Alex Padilla was appointed to the seat in 2021 after his predecessor Kamala Harris resigned to become Vice President of the United States. He intended to run for election to a full term. [3] Harris was first elected in 2016 with 61.6% of the vote.

There were two elections on the ballot for the same Class 3 seat: a special election for the remainder of Harris's term expiring on January 3, 2023, and a general election for the full term ending on January 3, 2029. Padilla handily won both elections against Mark Meuser.

House of Representatives

All of California's seats to the United States House of Representatives were up for election to two-year terms. Due to the results of the 2020 United States census, California had 52 seats up for election, a loss of one seat. This was the first time the state lost a congressional delegation in its history. [7] Six members of Congress chose not to run for re-election, including Democrat Karen Bass, who instead ran for mayor of Los Angeles.

Although Democrats would hold the majority of the state's delegation, Republicans would win both open districts created through redistricting, as well as retain vulnerable districts that voted for Joe Biden in 2020.
