What kind of district is this? Far left, left, moderate...
Comfortably left-wing. Not quite Berkley left-wing, but it's highly unlikely a Republican could win who was to the right of Scott Brown, if a Republican could win at all.
California's 36th congressional district covers part of
Los Angeles County, notably Redondo Beach, Manhattan
Beach, Torrance, El Segundo, Venice, Wilmington, and
San Pedro and is currently represented by Democrat
Jane Harman; so bright blue.
It contains LAX and a huge sewage treatment plant.
