FAQ’s

How can you securely vote in person in California?

1. Bring your Vote-by-Mail (VBM) ballot and return envelope when you vote in person to show you are registered and haven’t voted yet.

2. You do not have to give up your VBM ballot or envelope at the polls.

To ensure ballot security at the polling place, follow these steps:

• Request using a paper ballot instead of a machine.

• If paper voting isn’t available, request to cast your completed VBM ballot without the envelope. If the polling center manager says you can't, ask them to call the county hotline for confirmation. You have the right to ask questions and receive clear answers. If poll workers cannot answer your questions, ask them to verify with their hotline. Voters Choice Act

• If no other option is available, you can vote using the machine your county provides, either a voting machine or a ballot marking device that lets you mark your votes on physical ballots.
