POLITICO Breaking News
-------------------------------------------------

Republican businessman Craig Huey appears to have advanced to a July 12 runoff for California's 36th District House seat, a major victory for the party given predictions that two Democrats would place first and second in Tuesday's vote.

Huey will face Los Angeles City Councilwoman Janice Hahn, who won 24.66 percent of the vote, according to unofficial returns from the L.A. County clerk's office.

With 100 percent of precincts reporting, Huey garnered 21.87 percent of the vote to California Secretary of State Debra Bowen's 21.48 percent. A total of 206 votes separated the second- and third-place candidates.

Hahn and Huey topped a crowded field of candidates running for the seat vacated by Democratic Rep. Jane Harman.
