On this edition of Your Call, we continue our discussion about the California Governor’s race.
On June 2, voters will pick the top two candidates who will face off in November. We have a jungle primary in California, so if Democrats split the vote, we could have two Republicans at the top of the ticket. So far, lower polling Democrats are not dropping out.
What do you want to know about the candidates and how are you planning to vote?
If you're voting by mail, be sure to send your ballot by May 26. After May 26, the Secretary of State recommends dropping off your ballot or voting in person to ensure your vote is counted, which you can track online.
