WILL Your Vote BE Counted?

All California active voters will receive a ballot for the June 2, 2026, Primary Election

Secure ballot drop-off locations open May 5, 2026. Ballots can be dropped off at a drop-off location, county election office, or RETURNED BY MAIL.

HOWEVER: Vote-By-Mail Ballots returned by mail, in order to be counted, must be postmarked on or before Election Day. Be aware that your ballot will NO LONGER be postmarked at your local post office on Election Day. Your ballot will be postmarked when it is received by a REGIONAL POST OFFICE.

 UPDATE: According to the Sonoma County Registrar of Voters at our April monthly meeting, mail in ballots can take up to 8 DAYS to be received. Plan ahead to vote in the way that’s best for you.

IF YOU VOTE BY MAIL:  MAIL YOUR BALLOT EARLY SO IT IS COUNTED. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL ELECTION DAY TO MAIL YOUR BALLOT AT YOUR LOCAL POST OFFICE!!!
