Sal Medina and Corey Calaycay have been reelected to Claremont City Council’s District 5 and District 1 seats, respectively. Meanwhile, the race for CUSD Board of Education’s Trustee Area 5 remains too close to call.
All results are as of the most current update from the LA County Registrar’s Office at press time, 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, November 6:
Claremont City Council
District 1
Incumbent Corey Calaycay has defeated Rachel Forester, 2,029 (58%) to 1,452 (42%).

Citrus Community College Board of Trustees
Trustee Area 2

Los Angeles County Measures
Measure A
Approval of Measure A looks to be assured, 1,372,580 (56%) to 1,085,690 (44%). If passed, the measure would repeal Measure H, a ¼ cent sales tax measure to fund homeless services and prevention that was passed by voters in 2017, and impose a ½ cent sales tax in its place that would raise more than $1 billion annually.
Measure G
Measure G is still hotly contested, with 1,165,162 (50%) supporting and 1,149,591 (50%) against. If passed, it would create an elected county executive position, an independent ethics commission, and a nonpartisan legislative analyst position. It would also expand the LA County Board of Supervisors from five to nine members and require county departments to present annual budgets at public meetings.
Measure E
Measure E, the Fire Protection Special Tax Measure, remains on track to pass, 490,282 (53%) to 427,193 (47%). If passed, Measure E would levy a 6-cent per square foot tax on certain parcel improvements, exempting low-income seniors. It is expected to raise $152 million annually.
