| Elections in California |

The 2018 United States Senate election in California will take place on November 6, 2018, to elect a member of the United States Senate to represent the State of California, concurrently with other elections to the United States Senate, elections to the United States House of Representatives, and various state and local elections.
Under California's non-partisan blanket primary law, all candidates appear on the same ballot, regardless of party. In the primary, voters may vote for any candidate, regardless of their party affiliation. In the California system, the top two finishers—regardless of party—advance to the general election in November, even if a candidate receives a majority of the votes cast in the primary election. Washington, Louisiana, and Mississippi have similar "jungle primary" style processes for Senators.
The candidate filing deadline was March 8, 2018, and the primary election will be held on June 5, 2018.[1]
Four-term Democratic incumbent Dianne Feinstein won re-election in 2012 with 63% of the vote, taking the record for the most popular votes in any U.S. Senate election in history with 7.86 million votes.[2] Feinstein is the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee. She will be 85 years old in 2018, leading to speculation that she would retire in January 2019,[3][4] as her long-time colleague Barbara Boxer did in January 2017. A poll from 2017 conducted by Berkeley IGS found that a slim majority of California voters would prefer her to retire due to her advanced age, with individual interviews citing a desire to let younger politicians stand for election instead.[5][6] Despite these concerns, she has declared that she will run for re-election to a fifth full term.[7]
