November Election Ballots Drop Next Week. Pledge to Vote for CFA-Endorsed Props and Candidates

Voting for the November 2026 Election begins as early as next week.  

County elections officials will start mailing ballots on or before Monday, October 5, according to the Secretary of State’s Office. Pledge to vote for our CFA-endorsed propositions and candidates today.   

We identified priority races and propositions for the General Election based on where our work can make the difference and electing a pro-worker legislature. At the same time, there are real threats to our fundamental right to vote from the federal government. We need to incorporate political advocacy work that protects that right to ensure our voices are heard. 

The decisions made in this election will affect political conditions for faculty, students, and our communities for years to come.  

Here are our priority races and propositions:   

• California Constitutional Offices 
  • Xavier Becerra for Governor  
  • Richard Barrera for Superintendent of Public Instruction   
  • Jane Kim for Insurance Commissioner   
• State Assembly  
  • Jackie Elward for District 12
  • Leila Namvar for District 47  
  • Sara Deen for District 66  
  • Jessie Lopez District 68 
  • Clarissa Cervantes for District 58
  • Deborah Klein Lopez for District 42 

• State Senate
  • John Erickson for District 24  
  • Sarah Rascon for District 26
  • Mara Elliott for District 40
• Congress 
  • Mai Vang for District 7 
  • Dr. Richard Pan for District 6  
  • Aisha Wahab for District 14  

• Propositions  
  • YES on Proposition 3
  • NO on Proposition 39
  • NO on Proposition 43 

Make a plan to vote and remember to remind your fellow CFA members, students, family, friends, and community members to vote, too. Ask your chapter leadership how you can get involved in CFA Political Action shifts to get out the vote.
