ONE THING / A DISTRICT IS A SET OF LINES
Lines decide who is on the ballot with you.
Not an official City of El Segundo page. Names, phones, and districts of people in office are on Who represents El Segundo. This lesson does not repeat that roster and does not name winners.
Congressional lines and the other state lines
The Secretary of State says: Under Prop. 50, California will temporarily use legislatively drawn Congressional district maps starting in 2026 and through 2030.
Those maps will be used until the CCRC draws new maps following the 2030 U.S. Census.
fact
The same page says: Prop. 50 did not alter current State Senate, State Assembly, or State Board of Equalization district lines.
Those lines that were drawn by the CCRC after the 2020 Census remain in effect.
fact
It also says the new congressional districts will take effect in January 2027.
Someone whose congressional district is changing will continue to be represented by a congress member in the current district until noon on January 3, 2027.

California redistricting, Secretary of State. Read November 3, 2026. CCRC is the commission named on that page.
Which offices use the top-two primary
The Secretary of State says voter-nominated offices are state constitutional offices, state legislative offices, and U.S. congressional offices.
The Top Two Candidates Open Primary Act does not apply to candidates running for U.S. President, county central committees, or local offices.
fact
A city council seat, a school board seat, and a county office are in that "local offices" exclusion only if they are the local offices the sentence means. The page does not print a city-by-city list. El Segundo's own ballot rules are not restated here. fact

Where to read the people and the contests
Who represents El Segundo lists offices, districts as those sources printed them, and public office contacts. It says seats on the November 3, 2026 ballot stay listed as the officeholders named in its sources until official results are certified.
Nov. 3, 2026 results is this site's reading of Registrar and Secretary of State counts for the contests that include El Segundo. A blank there means the official number was not posted, not that a contest has no votes.
How those ballots are marked is the county ballot lesson. How the marks are added is the methods lesson, which uses example names only.
