He successfully kept his seat against Republican challenger Michael Maher.

Costa has represented the district since 2005, which includes the San Joaquin Valley, but the Democrat's political work in California stretches back decades. 

Costa served in the California State Assembly from 1978 to 1994, before being elected to the California State Senate from 1994 to 2002.

The Democrat faced Republican opposition from California native Michael Maher, a veteran and former FBI agent.
