California voters urged to mail ballots by today due to recent postal service change
Key Points:
- California state leaders are urging mail-in voters to submit their ballots by Tuesday to ensure they are postmarked by Election Day, June 2, due to recent changes in USPS mail processing.
- USPS now processes mail from post offices and collection boxes located 50 miles or more from a regional hub the next day, which could delay postmarking of ballots dropped off on Election Day.
- Ballots must be postmarked by June 2 to be counted; voters missing the Tuesday deadline can drop off ballots at voting centers or ballot boxes, or request a postmark at a post office.
- Key races in this election include the Los Angeles mayoral race and the California governor's race.
- In-person voting is available until 8 p.m. on Election Day, with same-day voter registration offered at local voting centers.
