SUMMARY: California has scheduled a special election on September 21,

District vacated by the late Congressman George E. Brown, Jr. Under
California law, a majority winner in a non-partisan special election is

top vote-getters of each qualified political party, including
independent candidates.
Committees participating in the California special elections are
required to file pre- and post-election reports. Filing dates for these
reports are affected by whether one or two elections are held.
