These are early, unofficial returns from NBC Bay Area's Contra Costa County results page. Totals were cross-checked against ABC7's results page, which matched or ran slightly ahead in its later updates.

  • Jason Seto: 25.71% (516)

Pleasant Hill District 4

2 seats up.

  • Amy Callaghan: 28.14% (1,758)
  • Kim Trupiano: 21.32% (1,332)
  • Marie Shulman: 20.76% (1,297)

ABC7 shows Shess at 74% and Howard at 72%, and lists Clayton as top two elected.

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.
