Ways to Turn in a Ballot: Everything Voters Need to Know 

San Diego County voters who haven’t turned in ballots yet have more options now than ever. The County Registrar of Voters has four satellite locations for this election in addition to their Kearny Mesa office, all open Tuesday from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.

At those sites (details here) voters can return a ballot, obtain or exchange a ballot, or change their party or address of registration. People who are eligible can also still register to vote for this election at the satellite offices — or at any polling place on Election Day (look yours up here).

While no postage is required to vote by mail this year, voters can also drop ballots off during open hours at one of the libraries listed here. Voters should call the Registrar with any voting-related problems or questions at (858) 565-5800.
