When it comes to politics, it’s rough out there: There’s no clear favorite for governor in California’s top-two primary on June 2, and the list of statewide, congressional, judicial and local races and measures is seemingly endless.

Don’t worry, The Sacramento Bee, The Fresno Bee, The Modesto Bee, the Merced Sun-Star and The Tribune of San Luis Obispo have you covered.
We recently published our comprehensive voter guides, which include candidate information, voter-registration information, maps and, in many races, candidate endorsements made by our McClatchy California editorial board. The board’s endorsement process is walled off from the newsroom, so it doesn’t influence our reporting. We see endorsements as a public service — regardless of whether you disagree with the board’s opinion.
Our voter guide stories also delve into who’s funding the races, and in some cases include searchable campaign-finance graphics created by the nonprofit statewide news organization CalMatters.
