U.S. House district for California
California's 3rd congressional district is a U.S. congressional district in California. It includes the northern Sierra Nevada and northeastern suburbs of Sacramento, stretching south to Death Valley. It encompasses Alpine, Inyo, Mono, Nevada, Placer, Plumas , and Sierra counties, as well as parts of El Dorado , Sacramento , and Yuba counties. It includes the Sacramento suburbs of Roseville (the district's largest city), Folsom , Orangevale , Rocklin , and Lincoln , and the mountain towns of Quincy , South Lake Tahoe , Truckee , Mammoth Lakes , and Bishop .[1] The district is represented by Republican Kevin Kiley.
Prior to redistricting in 2020, the 3rd district encompassed most of the Sacramento Valley north and west of Sacramento . It covered all of Colusa , Sutter and Yuba counties, most of Glenn , Lake , Solano and Yolo counties and a portion of Sacramento County .[4] The district was represented by John Garamendi , a Democrat.
Recent election results from statewide races Recent history The 3rd district once extended up the Sacramento Valley from Sacramento to take in rural territory up to Tehama County . Once a Democratic bastion, the district was pushed into more rural and Republican-leaning territory after the 1990 census, and finally elected a Republican in 1998. The 2001 reapportionment made the district more compact and Republican than its predecessor, though it was far less Republican than the neighboring 4th district . Although there was some movement in registration in favor of the Democrats, it still had a strong GOP flavor as most of the Sacramento area's Democratic voters lived in the neighboring 5th district .
While George W. Bush carried the district in 2004 with 58.2% of the vote, the district swung rapidly in the Democratic column in 2008 with Barack Obama narrowly winning a plurality with 49.28% of the vote over John McCain 's 48.81%. However, despite Obama's win, in the congressional election held on the same day the Republicans retained the seat.
After redistricting, this district essentially became the 7th district, while a new 3rd was created with lines similar to what the old 3rd had in the 1990s. This version of the 3rd was considered a swing district, though the bulk of its population lives in Democratic-leaning areas in the outer Bay Area and in the closer-in suburbs of Sacramento.
Election results from statewide races before 2012 Composition as of 2023 As of the 2020 redistricting, California's 3rd congressional district is located in the Sierra Nevada region.
