California Assembly district 76 is one of the most Republican-leaning legislative districts in the state. Ever since it was created in 2011, only Republicans have appeared on the November ballot, running against each other because two Republicans placed first and second in the primary.

But in the June 2018 primary, two Democrats and six Republicans were on the ballot. The two Democrats placed first and second, so the November ballot will have just Democrats for this seat. As a result, Republicans are guaranteed to lose this seat. Assuming no other Assembly district changes parties, this change will restore the two-thirds Democratic majority in the Assembly.

So far, the results in this district are: Democrat Tasha Horvath 17,017; Democrat Elizabeth Warren 17,347; Republicans Phil Graham 14,271; Thomas Krouse 5,404; Maureen Muir 5,895; Amanda Rigby 3,776; Jerome Stocks 3,330; Brian Wimmer 551.

In November 2016, the results were: Republican Rocky Chavez 95,477; Republican Thomas Krouse 65,377.

The Daily Beast has this article about the June 4 campaign finance report filed by Jill Stein. The article says that the Stein campaign remains committed to asking recount donors their opinion on how to spend the remaining funds.
