The 2024 California's 30th congressional district election will be held on November 5, 2024, to elect the United States representative for California's 30th congressional district, concurrently with elections for the other U.S. House districts in California and the rest of the country, as well as the 2024 U.S. Senate race in California, other elections to the United States Senate, and various state and local elections. The nonpartisan primary election was held on March 5, 2024, concurrently with the Super Tuesday presidential primaries. Democratic state assemblywoman Laura Friedman and Republican physician Alex Balekian advanced to the general election.

A wide field of candidates ran to succeed Schiff, with 12 Democrats, 2 Republicans, and 1 independent participating in the March 5 primary. Several prominent Democrats competed in the primary, including state senator Anthony Portantino, former Los Angeles City Attorney Mike Feuer, and Silver Lake neighborhood councilor Maebe A. Girl.

Incumbent Adam Schiff, a Democrat who was re-elected with 72.1% of the vote in 2022 against another Democrat, who was not seeking re-election, instead choosing to run for the U.S. Senate. A moderate Democrat who unseated incumbent Republican James Rogan in 2000, Schiff's profile rose significantly during the presidency of Donald Trump, owing to Schiff's role as a lead impeachment manager in the first impeachment of Donald Trump, his service on the January 6 Committee, and his frequent appearances on MSNBC.^[1]^[2]

The 30th district is considered to be a deeply blue urban district and, as a result, safe for the Democrats. Joe Biden won it with over 72% of the vote in the 2020 presidential election.^[3] It is primarily based in Los Angeles and includes the neighborhoods of Atwater Village, East Hollywood, Echo Park, Elysian Valley, Hollywood, Hollywood Hills, Larchmont Village, Los Feliz, Mid-Wilshire, Miracle Mile, Shadow Hills, Silver Lake, Sunland-Tujunga, Universal City, and West Hollywood. It also encompasses Burbank, Glendale, and Pasadena.^[4]
