Be counted! Important information for voters

September 25, 2020

We've pulled together important information on voting in the upcoming General Election on November 3, 2020. Don't miss our local endorsements, and if you're a member, please consider volunteering with our local letter-writing and phonebanking programs to help elect environmental champions here in the Bay Area. Let's vote!

Check your registration:

All California voters will be sent a vote-by-mail ballot with a prepaid postage return envelope for the November 3, 2020 election. To make sure you get your ballot, double-check your voter registration at voterstatus.sos.ca.gov. 

Register to vote:

You can still register to vote online at registertovote.ca.gov, or, to request a paper voter registration application be mailed to you, call (800) 345-VOTE(8683). Your registration must be postmarked or submitted electronically no later than October 19, 2020. If you miss that deadline, you can complete the same-day voter registration process and vote at your county elections office or polling place.

Get updates on your ballot:

Sign up at wheresmyballot.sos.ca.gov to receive notifications on the status of your vote-by-mail ballot, including alerts if there are any issues with your ballot and instructions for how to correct them to make sure your vote is counted.

Voting by mail:

Vote-by-mail ballots that are mailed must be postmarked on or before Election Day — but don’t take any chances: If you are not sure your vote-by-mail ballot will arrive in time if mailed, bring it to any polling place or ballot drop box in your county by 8:00 p.m. on Election Day. 

Voting in person:

If you prefer to vote in person, you should know that some counties offer early voting at a few locations before Election Day. Learn more from your county elections office:

If you prefer to vote at the polls on Election Day, you can find your polling place:

Please be safe and wear a mask if you vote in person.
