I'm puzzled by the assertion that the district was created in 1865, given that California achieved statehood in 1849. Were there no congressional districts for 16 years? What about Cornelius Cole, whose bio says he represented the district from March 4, 1863 to March 4, 1865? —Stepheng3 (talk) 19:29, 28 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Election Results edit

For simplicity, the second set of numbers for the election results should be eliminated. Except for a recall (yes-no vote) the numbers do not add-up to 100%. It appears that whatever information that the second set of numbers was meant to convey, has been deleted from the data set that was presented. So, for simplicity, retain the winner of the elections, and (presumably) the actual percentage of the vote that the winning candidate received; allow the intelligent reader to do the unnecessary math, (100% - x% = y%). Eliminate the unexplained numbers that are seen to follow, instead of trying to explain them, (since they are not important enough to have been explained in the first place).
