The votes are in.

Election officials in San Bernardino and Los Angeles counties have finished processing ballots in the March 5 primary election. Now the California secretary of state must certify the results by April 12.

The top two vote-getters in races for federal and state office advance to the Nov. 5 general election. Likewise, in local races where candidates do not receive a majority of the votes cast, the top two finishers advance to the November election.

Here’s a look at how candidates in select races fared.
