The following key contests will be widely watched:
 
  • Diamond Bar City Council:  7 candidates and 3 seats.  NFL Stadium and Council leadership were the two key issues throughout the campaign.
  • El Monte City Council and Mayor:  Mayor and 2 council seats.  Will the voters send a strong message?  What impact will the results be despite the former City Manager Mundensen stepped down after prostitution sting last month in Pomona?
  • El Monte Union High School District Trustee:  Can former Rosemead Councilman John Tran win by one vote this time?
