With all precincts partially reporting at 4:44 a.m., Magsig, a Republican, had 61.5% of the vote, followed by Libertarian William Brown Jr., a Visalia resident and retired Marine, who had garnered 23.9%. Republican Louis Anthony Miramontes, an aircraft mechanic at Naval Air Station Lemoore, trailed with 14.6%, according to the California Secretary of State’s Office.
