A high-stakes special election unfolds in Alameda County this Tuesday, pitting two Democrats—State Senator Aisha Wahab and BART Director Melissa Hernandez—against each other to fill the congressional seat vacated by Eric Swalwell, who resigned amid sexual assault allegations.

With polls open from 7 AM to 8 PM, voters are being asked to make two critical decisions in one year—first for the immediate future, then for the long haul.
