The 2026 California primary election is here, but voters won\u2019t be deciding any ballot measures on Tuesday. While cities and counties may put local ballot measures up for a vote in primary elections, state law limits statewide ballot measures to the November general election or a special election, Ballotpedia said. A state law amended in 2011 sets those limits. Click to read full story by Sacramento Bee\u2019s Don Sweeney.<\/a><\/p>\n Update: 1:43 P.M.

The Sacramento Bee\u2019s Ben Paviour reports that recent polls suggest a tight three-way contest for governor involving Democrats Xavier Becerra and Tom Steyer, as well as Republican Steve Hilton, will shape up today. Polls suggest it\u2019s more plausible \u2014 though still not likely \u2014 that two Democrats, Becerra and Steyer, could advance to the November vote under California\u2019s top-two primary system.
