Five of the city’s nine City Council districts are up for reelection in 2022 in addition to the mayor’s office and other citywide offices like city prosecutor and city auditor. Here are what the initial fundraising reports show:
1st District
The 1st district includes parts of Downtown and the Port of Long Beach and is currently represented by Councilwoman Mary Zendejas. Zendejas won a special election in 2019 after the seat was vacated by Lena Gonzalez when she won a special election for a State Senate seat.
