Voter Guide: 2026 Statewide Primary Election

Ballots have been mailed out, and early voting starts today (Monday), May 4th!

Our voter guide is being mailed out to our club members and is a handy and trusted guide for our recommendations and endorsed candidates that will primarily (no pun intended) be on the ballot for the Statewide Primary Election on June 2nd, 2026.

We have a no-frills, printer-friendly version of our voter guide available as well for your convenience.

If there are races and elections not on our club's voter guide, you can check out the San Diego County Democratic Party for additional recommendations.

Let's get out the vote for our candidates, for democracy, and for our values!

Let's get to work!

Ryan Darsey (he/him/his)
President
San Diego Democrats for Equality

Although our club's voter guide is currently in the process of being mailed out, our executive board has decided to proceed with reconsidering a potential endorsement for Governor. We'll also consider an endorsement for Fallbrook Public Utility District 2.

We will also ask and invite our already endorsed candidates to join us and provide our members an opportunity on how we can help them get-out-the-vote and volunteer for the election.

A New Chapter. Let's Get to Work.

I am honored to step into the role of President of San Diego Democrats for Equality.

First, thank you.

To everyone who showed up, supported, and continues to believe in this organization, your commitment is what makes this club strong.

We are here because people before us built something worth fighting for.

Now it is our turn to carry it forward.

I also want to take a moment to thank Ryan Trabuco for his dedicated seven years of service as President.

His leadership helped build this organization into what it is today, and we are all better for the work he has done.

Let me be clear about what this moment demands.
