Voting for Bernie in California

KEY INFORMATION:
California has semi-closed primaries — Californians must register as a Democrat or "no party preference" to vote for Bernie!

You must be registered to vote by Monday, May 23rd in California.

If you're independent, make sure you're registered as 'no party preference'. There is also an Independent party in California which is NOT eligible to vote for Bernie -- only Democrats and 'no party preference' voters can vote for Bernie in the primary.

EARLY/ABSENTEE VOTING:
Many counties in California will hold early voting for the Democratic primary between May 9 and June 6, 2016. Contact your county elections office to learn more about early voting in your county. You can request a mail-in absentee ballot by submitting this form before May 31, 2016. You can also file an emergency absentee ballot in person at your local county elections office anytime between June 1 and 7, 2016.

COLLEGE STUDENTS:
If you are a college student not living in your home state, you can vote for Bernie in either your home state or in the state in which you are attending school!

MILITARY/OVERSEAS VOTERS:
If you are a military voter or a United States citizen living abroad, you are able to request a ballot here.
