If the results still hold when vote counting is over, it will be a rare case in Orange County of a state legislator failing to make it to the November runoff for their seat.
His replacement appears to be Republican former Assemblywoman Ling Ling Chang. Both major political parties focused heavily on their sides of recall effort.
State Sen. Josh Newman (D-Fullerton) faced a Republican-led recall effort focused on his vote last year to increase California’s gas tax and vehicle fees. The effort is part of a battle over whether Democrats will have a supermajority in the state Legislature.
