This percentage is an Associated Press estimate of how much of the vote in an election has been counted. It is informed by turnout in recent elections, details on votes cast in advance and – after polls close – early returns. The estimate may fluctuate as election officials report additional results and AP learns more about how many voters have cast a ballot.

Results are provided by the Associated Press (AP). The AP calls winners by analyzing vote tallies and other election data. Check marks are used to denote a winner only when the AP calls a race.

Michael Greer

  • Retired special educator
  • Republican
  • Experience: “Having been elected to public office, both as a city councilman and as a school board member, I have learned how to focus on problems and solve them. I have lobbied in Washington, D.C., and Sacramento on behalf of education, retirement, and wildfire policies.”
  • Taxes: “We need to reassess and evaluate what, why, and how our tax money is being spent, and need to stop spending money on programs that are not working.”
  • Change: “We need to change the one-party legislature, or we will continue to see higher prices, no accountability, substandard education, and higher crime rates.”

Chris Rogers

  • City Council Member, Santa Rosa
  • Democrat
  • Experience: “As mayor, I balanced the budget, expanded access to affordable child care, and launched a first-time home-buyers program for low-income workers.” 
  • Wildfires: After the Tubbs Fire devastated Santa Rosa, I led reconstruction efforts to bring our neighbors home — and we held PG&E accountable.”
  • Priorities: “I will deliver on what matters most to our communities: housing, fire insurance, access to health care, addressing homelessness, and preparing for the impacts of climate change.”
