The legal battle over a California school board race decided 18 months ago has ended, with voters in Alameda County heading to the polls Tuesday for a special election. - The race involves candidates Aisha Wahab and Melissa Hernandez, with Wahab leading after the June 2 primary.

- Hernandez has received over $1.6 million in independent expenditures from corporate PACs, while Wahab has support from labor groups. - If no candidate gets over 50% on Tuesday, a special general election will be held on August 18.

- The election is to fill a temporary term for the seat vacated by Eric Swalwell. The outcome will determine who faces off in November for the permanent position.
