The 1946 election for California's 12th congressional district was an election to the U.S. House of Representatives held on November 5, 1946, in which the Republican candidate and future president Richard Nixon defeated the incumbent five-term U.S. Representative, Democratic nominee Jerry Voorhis. Nixon was elected with 56% of the vote, defeating Voorhis's 43%, as well as third-party Prohibition Party candidate and former Representative John H. Hoeppel, who received 1%. After failing to recruit former U.S. Army General George Patton to run for the seat, the Republicans decided on then-Lieutenant Commander Nixon as their candidate, who would go on to become a Senator, Vice President, and eventually President of the United States.
