California's 4th congressional district is a congressional district in the U.S. state of California.
Tom McClintock, a Republican, has represented the district since January 2009.
Currently, the 4th district encompasses the Sierra from Truckee to the Sequoia National Forest. It consists of Alpine, Amador, Calaveras, El Dorado, Mariposa, and Tuolumne counties plus portions of Fresno, Madera, Nevada, and Placer counties.[4]
Prior to redistricting by the California Citizens Redistricting Commission of 2011, the 4th district encompassed the northeast corner of the state, stretching from the eastern suburbs of Sacramento north to the Oregon border. It consisted of El Dorado, Lassen, Modoc, Nevada, Placer, Plumas, and Sierra counties plus portions of Butte and Sacramento counties.
Competitiveness
George W. Bush won the district in 2004 with 61.3% of the vote. John McCain carried the district in 2008 with 53.98% of the vote while Barack Obama received 43.83%.
As of 2006, Republicans had 48 percent of voter registrations, Democrats had 30 percent, and Libertarians had roughly 5 percent.[5]
A Democratic congressional candidate nearly won the district in 2008, losing by only half a percentage point and less than 1,600 votes, indicating that the district was much more competitive than it appeared to be. But in the more recent [6] 2012 and 2014 elections the Republican candidate won over 60% of the vote indicating the District remains solidly Republican.
New district boundaries for the 2012 elections shifted the population center to the south and east. Registered Democrats and Independents/Decline to State voters in the new district area outnumber registered Republicans by 12%. However Republicans, Independents/Decline to State and small third parties outnumber Democrats well over a 2 to 1 ratio. There are 183,800 Republicans, 117,300 Democrats and 97,200 other.[7]

Historical district boundaries
2018 primary election
As of March 5, 2018, there are five Democratic candidates who have filed statements of candidacy with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) to contest the June 2018 primary.[69] They are, in alphabetical order by last name: Regina Bateson; Roza Calderon; Richard Martin; Jessica Morse; and Rochelle Wilcox. Martin and Wilcox[70] have since dropped out of the race. Wilcox[71] endorsed Morse in February.
Retired Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Charlie Brown, who was the Democratic nominee for this seat in 2006 and 2008, was "seriously considering" running in 2018,[72] but decided in June 2017 against a third campaign. In January 2018, Brown endorsed Morse for the nomination.[73] Bob Derlet,[74] the Democratic nominee in 2016, also endorsed Morse in January.
On the Republican side, McClintock has one challenger, Mitchell Kendrick White, who filed with the FEC in January.[75]
In February, the California Democratic Party endorsed[76] Jessica Morse for the Democratic Nomination. However, the California jungle primary system means that only the two candidates with the most votes on June 5, regardless of party, will go on to the general election on November 6. Both Republicans and four Democrats will appear on the jungle primary ballot.[76]
Living former Members
As of April 2015, there are two former members of the U.S. House of Representatives from California's 4th congressional district that are currently living.
Representative | Term in office | Date of birth (and age) |
---|---|---|
Vic Fazio | 1979–1993 | October 11, 1942 |
John Doolittle | 1993–1999 | October 30, 1950 |
