As of the current 118th Congress starting in 2025, California has 52 House seats, out of which 9 are held by Republicans. However, there is a proposed redistricting plan led by California Democrats aimed at reducing Republican seats potentially by eliminating five Republican-held districts, which could bring the number of GOP seats down from 9 if enacted. The 9 Republican-held seats in California currently include representatives such as Doug LaMalfa (1st district), Kevin Kiley (3rd), Tom McClintock (5th), Vince Fong (20th), David Valadao (22nd), Jay Obernolte (23rd), Young Kim (40th), Ken Calvert (41st), and Darrell Issa (48th).
In summary, the current number of Republican House seats in California is 9 , but this number is subject to change due to ongoing redistricting proposals aimed at increasing Democratic representation.
