These are early, unofficial returns from NBC Bay Area's San Mateo County results page. Totals were cross-checked against ABC7's results page.
District 2
Christine Boles: 75.15% (1,110)
Dan Urban: 24.85% (367)
District 5
Margo Meiman: 65.41% (1,352)
Sam Casillas: 34.59% (715)
ABC7 marks Christine Boles as the incumbent.
All results are unofficial election-night and early-morning counts as of Wednesday, Nov. 4. Counties keep counting mail and provisional ballots for days, and certification comes later, so margins can shift, especially in close contests.
