Call us: (714) 567-7600 OR NP033E-004 Section Primary Ele6tia s in California 3 How do primaries work in California? In a Primary Election,voters choose candidates to run in the General Election in November. For the June 5,2018 Statewide Direct Primary election,you will have Voter-Nominated and Nonpartisan contests on your ballot. i4 4 z i� �g # ' California Top-Two Primary County or Local Offices Voter-Nominated Offices Nonpartisan Offices U.S.Representative County Supervisor U.S.Senator Judge of the Superior Court State Constitutional Offices County Board of Education Member State Senator County Offices State Assembly Member In a California Top-Two Primary,for offices nominated by the voters,you can vote for any candidate,no matter what your party preference is. • All voters can vote in the Top-Two Primary. • You can vote for any candidate or write in a candidate. • A candidate's party preference is shown with his/her name.If a candidate is not registered with a party,his/her party preference is listed as"None" • The Top Two vote-getters move on to the General Election in November. It is possible that the top two could be from the same party. For county or local offices in a Nonpartisan Primary,all voters can vote for any candidate. • The candidates'party preference does not appear on the ballot. • If a candidate receives 50% plus 1 vote in the Primary,that candidate is elected. • If no candidate receives 50%plus 1 vote,the top two vote-getters go to a run-off at the November General Election,except for County Board of Education Member,where the top vote-getter is elected. Why do we have a "Top-Two Primary"? Proposition 14,passed by California voters on June 8,2010,created the Top Two Candidates Open Primary Act. This act requires that the two candidates receiving the greatest number of votes in the Primary Election will appear on the General Election ballot regardless of party preference.
