Southern California Voters Urged to Register by Monday for Primary Election

RIVERSIDE (CNS) - California Secretary of State Shirley Weber is
urging Southern California voters and residents across the rest of the state to
register to vote by today for the June 2 primary election and to track their
mail ballots online.
  

All active registered voters in California will receive a vote-by-mail
ballot for the election, Weber said. Voters can verify their registration
status at voterstatus.sos.ca.gov.
  

Weber's office reminded voters to complete, seal, sign and return
their ballots either by mail, at an official drop box or in person at a polling
place or vote center by 8 p.m. June 2. Mailed ballots must be postmarked by
Election Day and received by June 9.
  

Voters may also sign up for ballot tracking alerts through the state's
``Where's My Ballot?'' system, which provides text, email or voice
notifications on ballot status at wheresmyballot.sos.ca.gov.
  

Eligible voters who miss Monday's registration deadline may still cast
ballots through California's same-day voter registration process at county
elections offices or in-person voting locations through Election Day.
  

The Secretary of State's Office said California has 3,546 polling
locations, 2,758 ballot drop-box locations and 1,988 early voting locations
statewide for the primary election.
  

Additional election information, including voting locations and key
deadlines, is available at sos.ca.gov.
