“None of their candidates in the nonpartisan primary was in the top two positions, raising the question of whether they could get shut out of the general election.”

“It also illustrated the potential for unusual outcomes in California’s nonpartisan primaries, in which Republicans, Democrats and independents all compete together, sometimes splitting their respective party’s votes and elevating an unexpected candidate.”
