A few voting tips as Election Day approaches

With just a few days (edit: hours!) left before the June 5th election, here are a few helpful voting tips:

  • If you vote at the polls, you should have received information about your polling place on the sample ballot that was mailed to you. In some counties, you can also vote early (check with your county Registrar of Voters for times and locations). Polls are open from 7 am to 8 pm on Election Day.
  • Vote-by-mail voters: Even if you haven't mailed in your ballot, it's not too late to vote. You can drop off your ballot at your county Registrar of Voters office, or at any polling place in your county on the day of the election. (Your polling place is on the voter information packet you should have received in the mail, or you can find out through the Secretary of State’s office.)
  • If you lose your ballot or your official vote-by-mail envelope, you can go to the polls on Election Day and cast a provisional ballot, which will be counted when it is verified that you didn’t vote by mail.

Finally, of course, don't forget to check CLCV's endorsements. Thanks for supporting environmental champions with your vote and your support for CLCV!
