Levin and Gunderson in tight race for California's 49th Congressional District

Election night results were too close to call Tuesday for California's 49th Congressional District in San Diego and Orange Counties

The race between Democratic Rep. Mike Levin and his Republican challenger Matt Gunderson for California's 49th Congressional District in San Diego and Orange counties remained too close to call Tuesday as votes continue to be counted. The 49th District was one of six tight congressional races in California that could help determine which party controls the U.S. House of Representatives.

Gunderson owned three car dealerships in Orange County before he retired. He ran as a supporter of abortion rights, tax cuts and border security. Levin maintained a fiscal edge over Gunderson, raising about $5.1 million as of Oct. 16, while Gunderson had raised nearly $4.2 million. The biggest issues in the coastal district that lies about 50 miles north of the border with Mexico included the environment, housing, veteran affairs and immigration.
