Voting Under Way in 21st Senate District
| Tuesday, Mar 17, 2015
election031715stub

Residents hit the polls Tuesday to cast ballots for a new state senator to represent the east side of the Santa Clarita Valley.

Knight, who held the 21st District state Senate seat, replaced Rep. Howard “Buck” McKeon, R-Santa Clarita, in the 25th Congressional District in early November, leaving his seat open in the Legislature.

Sharon Runner is the only candidate to appear on the ballot. She was the only person to file before the deadline for the seat in California’s 21st Senate District, but there are six other write-in candidates.

The six write in candidates are:

Democratic: Joshua Conaway, Steve Hill, and Richard E. Macias.

Republican: Jerry J. Laws.

No Party Preference: Joshua C. Chandler, and Jason Zink.

Runner, a 60-year-old Republican from Lancaster, represented portions of the 21st Senate District in 2011 and 2012 when it was differently numbered and configured. From 2002 to 2008 she served in the state Assembly.

The district includes about half of the Santa Clarita Valley as well as the Antelope, Victor and Apple valleys. Southwestern portions of the SCV are represented by Sen. Fran Pavley, a Democrat.
