What's NEW in this Election?
Vote Centers
Traditional polling places will be replaced by vote centers. Voters will have the freedom to cast a ballot in-person at any vote center in their county instead of being tied to a single polling location. Vote centers look and feel like polling places, but provide additional modern features to make voting easy and convenient.
At any vote center in a participating county, a voter may:
- Vote in-person
- Drop off their ballot
- Get a replacement ballot
- Vote using an accessible voting machine
- Get help and voting material in multiple languages
- Register to vote or update their voter registration
UCI Vote Center
The voting hours for the UCI – Mesa Court Vote Center are as follows:
- Friday, October 30 – Monday, November 2: 8AM – 8PM
- Tuesday, November 3: 7AM – 8PM
UCI Ballot Drop Box
Located near the bike repair shop on Campus and W Peltason
Vote-by-Mail Ballots
Every registered voter in participating counties would be delivered a ballot 28 days before Election Day.
Voters will have three ways to return their ballot:
- Mail the ballot;
- Drop the ballot in a secure county ballot drop box; or
- Visit any vote center in the county.
Ballot Drop-Off Locations
Ballot drop-off locations provide voters with an additional way to return their ballot postage free.
