One district that seems to get a lot of play in the post election analysis of California's Top Two Primary is Tom McClintock's CA-04. Tom McClintock has been a conservative fixture in California politics for as long as I can remember. In the old partisan primary system all he had to to was find a district that would be a platform for the McClintock brand and not have the "D" word next to his name to win. In Top Two he may be up against Republicans that don't share his lack of pragmatism, Democrats and some Independents. Whether that coalition will form around challenger Art Moore remains to be seen.
Since CA-04 used to cover Weimar until redistricting and still covers our friends just down the hill it seemed a good topic to bring up. Here are a few links about Top Two that mention the CA-04 race.
