Seven Congressional Districts in OC, Seven Strong Representatives


If you live in Orange County, you’re represented by one of the seven Congressional representatives above. They are doing incredible work in Washington for our entire country, and we need to fight hard to keep all of them in office — and to elect more great leaders like them.

Get ready: Sign up for a volunteer action below, and watch your mailbox. Starting January 23, the OC Registrar of Voters is sending out voter information guides, including information about OC’s new ways to vote.

Starting in a few weeks, your vote-by-mail ballot will arrive in the mail. Find endorsed Democratic candidates
on our website. Bookmark this page for your March primary ballot! In the weeks to come, I will call on you to support big election actions. Watch for more announcements coming soon!

In unity,

Ada Briceño

Chair, Democratic Party of Orange County
