Voters can track their ballot every step of the way with the Where’s My Ballot? tool – a free subscription that sends automatic notifications by text, email, or voicemail on the status of the ballot.

The RR/CC provides voters with multiple convenient options to return their ballot including:

• Drop off at any one of 400+ Official Ballot Drop Box locations across Los Angeles County,

• Return by mail, no postage required. Voters should return ballots early, at least seven (7) days before Election Day to ensure timely delivery,

• Drop off at a local Vote Center beginning May 23.

This election has a long ballot with many contests and candidates. Voters should review their ballot and instructions carefully and remember to sign and date their Ballot Return Envelope before returning it.

Voters can view online candidate statements from candidates appearing on the ballot for nonpartisan County and judicial offices. This is in addition to the statements printed in the Sample Ballot book.

Eligible voters who have not registered and want to vote by mail must register to vote by May 18, 2026, to be mailed a ballot.
