In January 2018, Republican incumbent Ed Royce announced his retirement.[56] Royce's retirement created great uncertainty and interest in this election, due to the possibility of two candidates of the same political party winning California's jungle primary .[57] [58]
The primary election resulted in two candidates of different parties, with Republican Assemblywoman Young Kim and Democrat Gil Cisneros coming in first and second place respectively.[59] After the general election, it took several days to gather and tally absentee ballots, but on November 17, Cisneros was the projected winner of the election.[60]
