Los Angeles County is gearing up for the upcoming election with 122 Vote Centers set to open this Saturday, October 26. These centers will welcome voters to cast their ballots in person every day from 10 AM to 7 PM, with extended hours on Election Day, November 5, from 7 AM to 8 PM. Voters have the option to use voting machines at the centers or simply drop their completed ballots into the secure drop boxes located outside.

Mike Sanchez, the media spokesperson for the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk’s office, announced that eligible voters will receive a postcard detailing the closest Vote Center to their residence within the last 11 days leading up to the election. This initiative aims to facilitate early voting.

Dean C. Logan, the County’s Registrar-Recorder, emphasized that this election encompasses a broad range of offices and propositions, including federal, state, and local positions beyond just the presidential race. He urged voters to carefully review their ballots and encouraged early voting. For those who missed the voter registration deadline on October 21 but are still eligible, there’s still a way to participate. Starting October 26, these individuals can visit any Vote Center in the county, fill out a voter registration form, and still cast their vote in this election.

The Registrar’s office has ensured that assistance is available in 18 different languages at the Vote Centers. Voters who need more information can call 800-815-2666 and select option 3 for late voter registration details.

Furthermore, the office reiterated that California election laws strictly prohibit certain behaviors, which could result in fines and/or imprisonment. For example, soliciting support or opposition for any candidate or proposal is forbidden within 100 feet of polling locations, as well as displaying candidate names, images, or logos. Voters are also cautioned against lingering near ballot drop boxes or polling areas.

In addition, distributing information or audio-visual materials related to candidates or propositions near any voting location is prohibited. This includes the dissemination of petitions for propositions or recalls, as well as the display of apparel that features candidates’ names, images, or logos.
