Vote centers offer a range of services, aside from serving as a place to cast a ballot. There, voters can obtain a replacement ballot or one in their preferred language, register to vote and cast a provisional ballot or find other help for voting-related issues.<\/p>\n

Voters can also return their ballots at one of the 128 drop boxes located around Orange County, or send by mail. But a heads-up if you\u2019re planning to mail: Election officials are encouraging voters to mail ballots before Tuesday, June 2 \u2014 Election Day \u2014 or request a manual postmark from a U.S. Post Office employee to ensure it\u2019s postmarked by Tuesday and will still be eligible to be counted.<\/p>\n

Vote centers will be open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. through Monday, June 1. On Election Day, vote centers will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.<\/p>\n

The vote center at the Garden Grove Sports and Recreation Center, 13641 Deodara Drive, has opened after initially being closed because the building was used as a shelter during the hazmat emergency in Garden Grove. Drop boxes in the evacuation areas that had been shuttered are also reopened.<\/p>\n

Nearly 2 million ballots were sent to registered Orange County voters this year.<\/p>\n

Those who have already voted can track their ballot status with the California secretary of state\u2019s \u201cWhere\u2019s My Ballot\u201d tool at california.ballottrax.net. Voters input their name, date of birth and ZIP code to register. It will provide the status of the ballot, and voters can sign up to receive information about its process via email, text message or call.<\/p>\n
