Vote By Mail

You can always contact your County Clerk’s office to be 100% sure, but a quick way to check is to log into, or sign up for a My Voter Record account to check your status online. Once you have logged into your account, click on the Mail-in Ballot History link:

Next, take a look at what it says under “Ballot request type”. If it shows a record for the Primary and says “Annual Mail-in Elections” you are signed up to automatically receive a ballot in the mail. Look also for the “Ballot issued date” to make sure it is in the mail and track the receipt date from your account.

If instead, you only see a record from the general election that says “Single Election,” you need to either vote in person , or apply for vote by mail to receive a mail-in ballot .
