California uses different primary rules for state and congressional races versus presidential elections. The state’s primary system allows voters to choose candidates across party lines in certain races. Registered voters include Democrats at 10.38 million, Republicans at 5.80 million, and Independents at 6.18 million. Other parties account for 728,705 registered voters.

County Vote Counts Continue

Multiple California counties are finalizing vote tallies from the June 2 election. Election results remain unofficial until certified by county officials. Alameda County, Yolo County, and other jurisdictions posted preliminary results online. The expected vote total is based on early voting data and Election Day reports from county election officials.

Local Ballot Measures Also Decided

Voters in several counties also decided on local measures. Contra Costa County’s Measure B sales tax proposal appeared on the June 2 ballot. Results for local measures were last updated on June 12, 2026 at 6:37 PM Eastern Time. County clerks and registrars continue to process ballots and prepare official certifications.

What Happens Next

County election officials must report active voter registrations to the Secretary of State by a deadline set before the November general election. Official certification of all primary results will be completed by county clerks and recorders.
