You may be among the nearly two million voters who have already cast their votes for California’s primary election next week. But if you’re procrastinating like the rest of us, we’ll break down what’s on your ballot. We’ll go beyond the governor’s race to statewide races like attorney general and insurance commissioner, to the key congressional races that could determine the direction of the Democratic party, and the ballot measures that are conflicting, confusing or causing controversy. KQED’s Politics Team will answer your questions and discuss what you need to know to fill out your ballot.

Guests:

Guy Marzorati, correspondent, KQED's California Politics and Government Desk

Marisa Lagos, politics correspondent, KQED; co-host, KQED's Political Breakdown

Sydney Johnson, reporter, KQED News
