Vote-by-Mail Ballots for Nov. 6 Election to Arrive in California Mailboxes Starting Tuesday

Election Day is Nov. 6, but vote-by-mail voters in California can expect to receive their ballots starting Tuesday.

The 2018 midterms won’t just determine who succeeds Gov. Jerry Brown.

Also at stake: 53 congressional seats in a highly competitive contest that has Democrats vying to take back control of the House, whether or not state Sen. Kevin de León can defeat longtime incumbent Dianne Feinstein in the U.S. Senate race, 11 propositions that range from repealing the gas tax to clearing a path for year-round daylight saving time, and a lot more.

Californians can check their voter registration status here.

Not registered? Register here by Oct. 22 (individuals who miss this deadline can still “conditionally” register and vote at their county elections office or a designated site through Election Day).

I like the new system of voting centers and universal mailed ballots.

It's also nice that there are locations to drop off ballots that are staffed for more than one day - not sure if that's in all counties or just some. Hopefully the increased registration rate is accompanied by an increased turnout rate.
