here<\/a>. Drop boxes will remain open until 8 p.m. on Election Day, Tuesday, Nov. 3.<\/p>\n“This is a long ballot, so we encourage voters to take the time to review their choices and, when they’re ready, vote and return their ballot early,” Registrar-Recorder\/County Clerk Dean C. Logan said in a news release Thursday. “Voting early is convenient for voters and allows our office to begin processing ballots sooner so more can be included in Election Night results.”<\/p>\n
Sample ballot books continue to be mailed to all registered voters, according to the RR\/CC, and some voters may receive their ballot before their sample ballot.<\/p>\n
Logan’s news release also noted that eligible voters who haven’t registered and want to vote by mail must register to vote by Oct. 19, 2026, to receive one.<\/p>\n
