[edit] San Diego's 41st

In the 1980s, the 41st District was one of four that divided San Diego, California. The North San Diego County district had been held for twelve years by Republican Bill Lowery and was considered the most Republican district in the San Diego area. The District was renumbered as California's 51st District after the 1990 census.

[edit] The Inland Empire's 41st

The new district is the eastern region of the Greater Los Angeles Area known as the Inland Empire. The local Congressman from Redlands, Jerry Lewis, has been in office since 1979. Redlands became the primary city in the district because Congressman Lewis lives in Redlands. Other cities include Yucaipa, Victorville, Barstow, and Highland.
