REAL-TIME RESULTS: San Mateo County's 2018 Primary Election Races
Patch's live roundup of Tuesday's election results from across San Mateo County in the primary election for June 5, 2018.

SAN MATEO COUNTY, CA — Tuesday is Election Day in California and though turnout may not be as great as it was for the last presidential election, officials say we currently have the highest percentage of eligible citizens registered to vote for a gubernatorial primary in more than six decades. And now that polls are officially closed in the Golden State, results are starting to roll in. (Scroll down full San Mateo County results below).
"Registering to vote is just the first step," Secretary of State Alex Padilla said. "For the over 19 million California citizens who are registered to vote, the next step to participating is to cast your ballot. Only Californians who cast their vote — by mail or in person on Election Day — have a say in which measures our state adopts and which candidates are elected."
As of the May 21 voter registration deadline, the California Secretary of State reported that 19,023,417 Californians were registered to vote, which accounts for 75.73 percent of the state's eligible voting population. A notable change in the voting landscape is the dramatic increase in those registered with a "no party preference" — now the second largest voting group in California; behind the democrats and ahead of the republicans.
