​

Thank you for voting on November 8, 2022.  We elected California state officers, a U.S. Senator and congressmembers, plus many state legislators, and county, city, and school board members...and voted on ballot measures.

Register to Vote

• (Re)Register to Vote Online.  The deadline to register or re-register
  to vote is 15 days before an election. 
  If you have moved, you should re-register.  Young people who are 16 or 17
  may pre-register to vote. 

• If you are not registered, you can still vote in person by going

​

Mark your Ballot

​

Every registered voter is mailed a ballot starting about one month before the election..
Carefully mark the ballot and be sure you sign the envelope with the signature you used to register or the signature on your CA drivers license.  You need not vote on everything. 

​

Vote

​

You have several options to get your ballot to the Registrar of Voters:

• Mail it.  It must be postmarked on or before Election Day. 

• Find a drop box and deposit your ballot in its envelope.  

• Go to a Vote Center.  You may deposit your mail ballot, vote on a machine, or register to vote starting four days before election day.

​

Track Your Ballot

​

Track your mail-in ballot.  You can ask for an email, text, or phone call when your ballot status changes.  Has your ballot been mailed to you? Has it been received?  Did your vote get counted?  If not, you may have a chance to fix the problem. Or you may track your ballot directly with the Santa Clara County ROV.  

​
