COVID-19 has forced many states to make changes to voting. In California every registered voter will receive a vote-by-mail ballot at their residential address. If you are registered, the San Francisco Department of Elections will automatically mail a ballot to you in early October. Your ballot includes a postage paid envelope for returning your ballot.
The pandemic means a lot will be different about voting this year. If you wait until the last minute to decide to register or figure out where your polling place is, you could discover you are unable to vote. Or you could be presented with much more complicated logistics than in previous years. Don’t despair. A voting plan is just what it sounds like: figuring out how and when one will vote ahead of Election Day. Just take a few minutes to make your plan for 2020 and #VoteSafe #VoteHealthy.
Join the League of Women Voters of San Francisco for our bi-weekly “Ask the League” Virtual Office Hours. We'll answer registration questions, discuss ballot measures, and field any questions you have about voting in the upcoming election.
