Incumbent Linda Sánchez (D), Hector De La Torre (D), Shonique Williams (D), and Mitch Clemmons (R) are running in the top-two primary for California's 41st Congressional District on June 2, 2026. As of May 2026, Sánchez and De La Torre led in endorsements and fundraising.
The election is taking place in the context of redistricting in California that changed the 41st District's boundaries from those used in 2024. Incumbent Ken Calvert (R), who was elected 51.7%–48.3% in 2024, is running for re-election in the new 40th District. Inside Elections' Nathaniel Rakich said the "new map would much more dramatically reconfigure the 41st District, which would retain nothing except its number ... [the new district] is a D+16 seat in eastern Los Angeles County that would be a near-automatic pickup for Democrats."
The last Democrat to run against Sánchez was Michael Tolar (D) in 2020. Sánchez defeated Tolar 77.7%–22.3% in the primary and 74.3%–25.7% in the general election.
