Where to vote:
Your voter precinct,
or the location of your polling place, is determined by your home
address. You must be registered to vote at your home
address, where you reside, as your address determines which
candidates appear on your precinct ballot.
Your voter precinct will be open
7am-7pm on
Election Day.
Prior to all elections, you will receive a
sample ballot and the location of your precinct from your
county Supervisor of Elections.
Your precinct location
is also listed on your voter registration card; however, as
locations sometimes change, look for notice of precinct location
changes sent to you by your county Supervisor of Elections.
Early Voting sites can be
found near you where you can vote in the two weeks prior to the
primary and general election. Many locations have weekend
and night hours. This allows you to vote early and avoid
lines or unexpected troubles on election day.

Absentee Ballot
– Voting by Mail (& "early voting")
Any eligible voter can request an absentee
ballot by calling your county Supervisor of Elections.
You will receive your absentee ballot in
the mail approximately 2-4 weeks prior to Election Day. Mark the
ballot according to the instructions provided and use the return
envelope provided.
Be sure to affix the appropriate postage
needed to mail your ballot.
Be sure to sign your name on the back of
the ballot.
You must have a witness also sign and
provide their address.
Mail the ballot so that Supervisor of
Election will receive it prior to
7pm on Election Day, or
the ballot will not count. You can also hand deliver the
ballot early to Supervisor of Elections or turn the ballot in at
your precinct location on Election Day.
To vote early, or "absentee in person" in
advance of the election, go to your county Supervisor of
Elections office once ballots are available. (You should call
that office for early voting dates and office hours.)
