We’re tracking 183 races across Orange County in the 2024 general election. Voters were asked to vote on sales taxes, rent control, transient occupancy taxes and if their school district can issue bonds to fund repairs and new classrooms. There are six mayoral races, including in Costa Mesa, Garden Grove and Irvine.

County races

Janet Nguyen and Frances Marquez face off in a bid to represent District 1 on the Board of Supervisors, the only county election this year. Andrew Do, who is unable to run for reelection due to term limits, resigned last month ahead of federal conspiracy charges.

City races

Elections in Orange County’s 34 cities will determine mayors, city council seats and local measures. Dana Point and Mission Viejo have city propositions to address short-term rentals while a “yes” on Santa Ana’s Measure CC would enact renter protections. Also on the ballot in Santa Ana is a city charter amendment that would allow, by the November 2028 general municipal election, non-citizen city residents to vote in all city municipal elections. The city of Orange, in addition to elections for a mayor, treasurer, city clerk, three City Council seats and a vote on a proposed sales tax, has a measure that would allow fireworks in areas that aren’t at high risk for fires.
