Three candidates are competing for the Rialto Unified School District Board of Education's Trustee Area 5 seat on Tuesday, Nov. 3.
Incumbent Evelyn Dominguez faces two challengers: Stephanie Lopez and James M. Martinez, according to the San Bernardino Sun's ballot guide.
Polls close at 8 p.m. Voters can cast ballots at any polling place in San Bernardino County from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., according to the Victor Valley Daily Press.
