**Check your district:** state legislative lines split many cities, and public descriptions of the 2021 maps are incomplete. The cities listed here are the ones at least partly in this district based on the best available descriptions. Your sample ballot, or the county's [My Districts lookup](https://elections.sbcounty.gov/voterregistration/districtlookuptools/addresslookup/), shows which district you are actually in.

## Key findings
- Mostly north Orange County (Yorba Linda, Brea), with Chino Hills.
- **Phillip Chen (R, incumbent)** faces **Victor Hernandez (Green)**. No Democrat advanced. Neither answered KVCR's questionnaire. [^1][^2]
