    UCLA Office of Government & Community Relations OVERVIEW OF 2014 LA COUNTY, STATE, AND FEDERAL ELECTIONS Dear Colleagues: The November 4th General Election was important for our campus. With the retirements of Congressman Henry Waxman and Los Angeles County Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky, UCLA will be represented by a new member of Congress for the first time since 1975 and a new Los Angeles County Supervisor for the first time in 20 years. Also, voters selected a new State Senator that will represent the 26th District and includes the entire UCLA campus. Additionally, there were many other important races throughout Los Angeles County. This document prepared by Government & Community Relations staff, summarizes the preliminary results from key races in Los Angeles County at the federal, state and local levels of government. The election results are current as of November 5th. The final results have not been certified at this time, with absentee and provisional ballots still being counted in some races. Further updates will be provided if there are significant changes. LA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS RESULTS Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors District 3: Sheila Kuehl was successfully elected (52.7%) defeating Bobby Shriver (47.2%). Her term will begin on December 1, 2014. UCLA Community and Local Government Relations co-hosted a candidate forum in September on campus for the two candidates. The third district covers the western part of Los Angeles County, including the UCLA campus, the Westside and the Santa Monica Mountains to the Ventura County line, the San Fernando Valley and east to Atwater Village. Sheila Kuehl (’62) served for eight years in the California State Senate and six years in the State Assembly.
