California’s 30th Congressional District includes Burbank, Glendale and West Hollywood. And as a result of redistricting, which California voters approved in a special election last year, the district picked up an area north of the San Fernando Valley, including Acton and Agua Dulce.

This district is a Democratic stronghold, with 52.23% of registered voters identifying as Democrats. Another 17.78% of voters are registered as Republican and 23.64% have no party preference.

The top two vote-getters in the primary election, regardless of party affiliation, will face off in the November general election.

Vote tallies will be updated throughout the night and in the coming days as more ballots are counted, so check back periodically for the latest information.
