Who is my U.S. representative in CA-43?
Your representative for CA-43 is currently Maxine Waters (Democrat), who has held the seat since 1991. A few things worth flagging: California redrew its congressional map during the 2025–26 mid-decade redistricting process (voters approved the new lines in a November 2025 special election). The new district lines take effect with the November 2026 election, while the current boundaries remain in effect through the 119th Congress — so CA-43's boundaries (and possibly who represents you) could shift after this year's election. Whatdistrictamiin Waters is running for re-election in 2026, with a primary on June 2, 2026, and the general election on November 3, 2026. Other declared candidates in that primary include David Sedlik, Cristian Morales, and Myla Rahman.
