Last day to vote in San Diego general election is Tuesday
San Diego voters have until Tuesday to cast ballots in a closely watched local election with high campaign spending.
Tuesday marks the final day for San Diego residents to vote in the general election, Voice of San Diego reported. Many voters have been preparing by consulting the outlet’s No BS Voter Guide, which has seen significant downloads this week.
Campaign spending in San Diego’s elections has reached millions of dollars, with major donors backing candidates and ballot measures, according to a joint investigation by Voice of San Diego and KPBS. One notable campaign is for Measure B, a proposed countywide half-cent sales tax increase, which has raised over $3.4 million as of October 28.
Several San Diego City Council races have drawn attention, including the contest for southeastern San Diego’s seat. Incumbent Henry Foster faces challenger Martha Abraham, who narrowly trailed by 12 votes in the primary and has gained support from influential political figures, Voice of San Diego reported.
The race is competitive and uncertain, with allegations against Abraham circulating on social media. Reporters from Voice of San Diego investigated claims that Abraham used law enforcement and the justice system against neighbors, speaking with those familiar with the incidents to assess the evidence.
