Sample Ballot

Before every election, a sample ballot and other election material will be mailed out to every registered voter. This information is not forwarded by the post office, so it is important that you be registered at your current address. The sample ballot will give information about the offices and measures on the ballot. Review it before Election Day and decide how you want to vote. You may want to mark your sample ballot and take it with you to the polls to assist you in marking your official ballot. Your polling place is listed on the back side of your sample ballot. Keep your sample ballot. Do not throw it away.

Citizen Participation

The Registrar of Voters needs public-spirited citizens to serve as Precinct Officers. Polling places are also needed, especially those accessible to the handicapped.

If you are interested in providing one or both of these important services, please call the Polls Section at (951) 275-8715 between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, or call toll-free at (800) 773-8683.
