(*Only one precinct was counted to reflect the votes cast by residents living in downtown Santa Monica, as the other precincts overlapped too far into other neighborhoods. Voting precincts and neighborhood boundaries do not match exactly, and precincts were chosen to best reflect each neighborhood. Three precincts that overlapped with multiple neighborhoods weren’t counted at all. One precinct that overlapped equally into two neighborhoods was counted once for each neighborhood).
