Here is some helpful information to make sure you’re prepared:
- Register to Vote
Register to vote or confirm your voter registration at LA County’s voter registration page. You must register by Monday, October 19, 2026 to be eligible to vote in the November 3 General Election. - Receiving and Tracking Your Mail-in Ballot
All active registered California voters will receive a ballot by mail. Ballots begin mailing on October 5, and for more information on voting by mail, tracking your ballot, ensuring your vote was received and counted, requesting a replacement ballot, and more, visit LA County’s Vote by Mail page. - NEW and IMPORTANT deadline to Mail-In Ballots
If you are voting by mail, it is critical that you mail your ballot—or drop it off at a post office—no later than Tuesday, October 27. New postal processing practices mean that some mail may not receive a same-day postmark, which could delay your ballot. Mailing your ballot early helps ensure it is received and counted. If you are mailing your ballot on Election Day (November 3), ask a postal employee to hand-stamp it with that day’s postmark. - Dropbox Locations
The safest place to return your mail-in ballot is an Official Ballot Drop Box. Find the closest official ballot drop box. - In-Person Voting
You can also vote in person if you prefer. Early vote centers in Los Angeles County are expected to begin opening Saturday, October 24, with additional locations opening closer to Election Day. On Election Day, Tuesday, November 3, vote centers will be open 7:00 AM – 8:00 PM. Find the closest in-person vote center. - Military and Overseas Voting
If you are an eligible Military & Overseas voter, see lavote.gov’s military & overseas page for more information about the process to ensure your ballot is counted.
