Voters on Tuesday head to the polls for California's pivotal primary, which could help determine whether Democrats will gain control of the House in the November midterms.
The Golden State is home to 10 of the most competitive House races in the nation, virtually all currently held by Republicans. The state is a key to the Democratic Party’s plan to net the 23 seats it needs to flip the House majority in November.
But uncertainty abounds thanks to the state's "jungle primary" system, where the top two vote-getters advance to the general election regardless of party affiliation.
The unusual dynamic threatens to keep the Democrats shut out of key House battles, eliminating any chance of competing in top races. It could also keep Republicans off the ballot in the governor’s race, an outcome that could deal a blow to GOP turnout in November.
The polls close at 11 p.m. EDT. Follow below as The Hill provide live updates and analysis throughout the day.

He’s got to thread the needle, but its just possible
You can bet Republicans will be at the polls in DROVES come November, you are SO RIGHT about immigration needing to be his TOP campaign priority WE are FED UP and he just might be able to win this damned thing!!! OMG wouldn’t that have the MSM stuttering for days, for me it would be just like Trump winning the POTUS, people STANDING UP and taking our DAMNED COUNTRY BACK!!!!
It’s very interesting!
Remember there are many American Mexicans & Legal Mexican immigrants that are totally against Sanctuary Cities & Illegal Immigration.
I notice when combining Cox & Allen voters, it exceeds Newsome Grusome voters.
It has become a state where WE are required to assimilate to their ways, their language, their foods, their dress in schools, their history in OUR education system I am FED UP!!!!
I think Cox has a shot, but I’m not so sure Trump should go to California.
He can support Cox from afar(like he’s been doing).
Frankenstein meets Planet of the Apes.
Can you just imagine? All summer Newsom has to defend sanctuary state and all the other policies causing middle class Californians to leave in droves.
Travis.
Now, it is reported that Cox will have the runoff against Newsom. Whoever is governor will appoint Feinstein’s replacement.
Well I don’t do that and won’t. If you can’t speak English I don’t talk with you. If I need to speak to someone I’m looking for information from and you have an foreign accent I ask to speak to some one else.. ..I will not see a foreign Doctor for anything..and on and on it goes.
Sorry. Cox is not going to win CA.
But as another wise Freeper mentioned, his place on the ticket
could help save the House.
And for that, we should be grateful Cox has made it to the General
Election.
What? Has she retired?
look at the vote totals... Cox could very well beat Newsome in gen.
If Cox runs with fire in his belly, anything can happen. If he’s the typical Republican milquetoast, he’ll get slaughtered.
These Dems are beyond ignorant, the American citizens have been forced into being quiet about their feelings on illegal immigration for fear of being called racist!!! Trump has OPENED the door for us to OPEN our mouths and FIGHT BACK!!! He single handily has FINALLY brought this to a head and made it OK to SAY what we have quietly been thinking for decades!!! These IDIOT Dems STILL think that illegal immigration IS a winning issue Trump WINNING the POTUS did NOT open their eyes to the TRUE FEELINGS of the citizens of this country!!! You can bet there will be major hanky panky at the polls in November EVERY damned republican in CA. better get out and vote to overcome the voter fraud you can bet will be going on!!!!
EVERYONE said that Trump could NEVER win the general, IMMIGRATION in this country has come to a head where American citizens are concerned AND where CA. citizens are concerned we ALL may be VERY SURPRISED come November!!! Never say never!!!
Yup. Newsom is the godfather of “same sex” “marriage”. Lots of minority voters may stay home because of that issue.
....and used needles and piles of poo 💩 to spread around the state once he wins....
He's gonna make California look like America's third world sh!thole....."litter"ally!
I have liberal friends who won’t vote Newsom. It’s going to be interesting. If my big city liberal middle class friends are done with this leftist progressive crap, how much moreso are liberals from outside SF and LA going to fight Newsom? We have a chance.
