California voters will elect all of California's seats to the United States House of Representatives, one seat to the United States Senate, all of the seats of the California State Assembly, and all even-numbered seats of the California State Senate. Additionally, they will vote indirectly in the nationwide 2024 presidential election.
Pursuant to Proposition 14 passed in 2010, California uses a nonpartisan blanket primary for almost all races, with the presidential primary races being the notable exception. Under the nonpartisan blanket primary system, all the candidates for the same elected office, regardless of respective political party, run against each other at once during the primary. The candidates receiving the most and second-most votes in the primary election then become the contestants in the general election.
