SAN DIEGO, CALIF. - Many Californians have already received their 2018 midterm ballots by mail. It's important to note for anyone casting a ballot in advance or who will go to the polls on November 6 that there are two cards to vote, and both are front and back.

Card A

• Governor;
• Lieutenant governor;
• Secretary of state;
• Insurance commissioner;
• Attorney general;
• And more.

It also includes federal races for US Senate and Congress in the middle column, along with confirmation ballot options for associate justices to the state Supreme Court.

Card B
