U.S. Rep. and Democrat Josh Harder was up more than 4,000 votes over Stockton Mayor and Republican Kevin Lincoln in the latest results from the three counties within the Central Valley congressional district up for grabs in Tuesdayâs election.Harder, who was first elected to Congress in 2018, had 85,528 votes (51.2%) across the parts of San Joaquin, Contra Costa and Stanislaus counties in District 9. That was 4,024 more than the 81,504 (48.8%) for Lincoln, who Stockton voters elected as mayor in 2020.The overwhelming majority of the votes counted as of Friday for Harder came from the county where the district had the most votes in San Joaquin, where he had 51.6% or 82,211 votes. That was 5,233 more in the county than Lincoln, who was favored in the small portions of Contra Costa and Stanislaus counties.Harder defeated incumbent Republican Jeff Dunham in 2018 and won his two subsequent elections to stay in Congress ahead of this yearâs race. In 2022, he defeated San Joaquin County Supervisor and Republican Tom Patti, who in this weekâs election was running to replace Lincoln as Stocktonâs mayor but as of the countyâs latest results was losing to former councilmember and Democrat Christina Fugazi.Lincoln in 2020 became Stocktonâs mayor by defeating Michael Tubbs, a Democrat who was elected in 2016 as the cityâs youngest and first Black mayor and championed universal basic income programs. A HBO documentary earlier in 2020 titled âStockton on My Mindâ followed Tubbs during his tenure as mayor.Stockton Mayor Kevin Lincoln speaks during a press conference about California Opioid Settlement Agreement Funding at Civic Auditorium in Stockton, Calif., on Nov. 14, 2023.

Former Stockton city councilmember Christina Fugazi remained ahead of San Joaquin County Supervisor Tom Patti in the race to be the cityâs next mayor, according to the latest results released by the county.Fugazi, a Democrat and Stagg High School assistant principal who previously served on the Stockton City Council from 2015 to 2022, had 29,045 votes or 53% of the total vote, according to the countyâs latest unofficial results Friday evening.That was compared to 25,716 or 47% for Patti, a Republican who was first elected to the county Board of Supervisors in 2016 and lost in 2022 in his run for a Congress seat to incumbent U.S. Rep. Josh Harder, D-Stockton.The current Stockton mayor, Republican Kevin Lincoln, did not run for re-election because he went up against Harder in Tuesdayâs election for the District 9 Congress seat but was trailing by more than 4,000 votes as of the release of the latest vote counts Friday from San Joaquin County as well as parts of Contra Costa and Stanislaus counties that are also part of District 9.Stocktonâs mayoral race became of national interest in the last election cycle following the release of the 2020 HBO documentary âStockton on My Mindâ that followed Lincolnâs predecessor Michael Tubbs, who was elected in 2016 as the cityâs youngest and first Black mayor and championed universal basic income programs.Tubbs lost to Lincoln later in 2020 and has been a member of Gov. Gavin Newsomâs administration as its special advisor for economic mobility and opportunity.
