SACRAMENTO (AP) — State officials are preparing to embrace an expanded California electorate on Tuesday as nearly 18 million registered voters head for the polls or turn in early ballots in the state’s presidential primary. A surge of 650,000 new voters less than two months ahead of the June 7 primary sets up a potentially big turnaround from the historically low turnout of 2014. Before polling stations opened at 7 a.m. Tuesday, more than half of all people who cast ballots in the last primary had mailed in or dropped off early votes. The drawn-out contest for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders has driven an uptick in voter registrations. California is typically not a player in the presidential contest with its primary so late in the election season. But it’s unknown whether those people will show up on election day or mail in their ballots. “It’s certainly easy to register to vote,” said Orange County registrar of voters Neal Kelley. “It’s harder for people to get out and go cast a ballot.” Although only one statewide initiative appears on the primary ballot, petitioners have turned in signatures for 20 more initiatives they hope to get on the Nov. 8 ballot. Counting those signatures and processing voter registrations has strained county election offices, some of which had to hire temporary workers to handle the workload. The Field Poll predicts that two-thirds of voters will cast ballots by mail. Kelley, who’s also chairman of the California Association of Clerks and Election Officials, said the increasing number of voters who cast their ballots by mail could relieve polling stations on Tuesday. If not, Kelley said, “election officials generally come through in the pinch.” About 4.1 million California voters this year are Latino, 1.6 million are Asian, and 800,000 are black.

AMITYVILLE, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) – A funeral will be held Thursday for a Jersey City woman whose disappearance led to a serial killer’s dumping ground on Long Island. Shannan Gilbert , a 24-year-old escort, disappeared on May 1, 2010. Her remains were found in a marsh on Oak Beach in December 2011. Investigators then found the remains of 10 other women along Ocean Parkway. They suspect a serial killer is responsible, but don’t believe Gilbert’s death is linked to the others. Gilbert will be buried in Amityville Cemetery.

Robert Martinez, 26, of Massachusetts, faces murder charges in the death of 24-year-old Jordan Johnson of Fort Lee , Bergen County Prosecutor John Molinelli told The Record. Courtney Evelyn, 30, Dyrol Evelyn, 25, and Diana Escotto, 24, all of the Bronx, face charges of hindering apprehension, Molinelli said. It wasn’t clear if they had attorneys. Andre Jamal Thompson, 25, was arrested last week in a Maryland hotel room and charged with murder. Thompson and Martinez allegedly lured Johnson to an apartment he sometimes used in Fort Lee, Molinelli said. Johnson was attacked there and eventually killed. Johnson was reported missing by his live-in girlfriend on Jan. 14 after she came home and found their apartment ransacked. A large amount of jewelry and cash were missing. Johnson’s body was found the next day in the trunk of his car in the Bronx. (TM and
