Can anyone find out how I've voted once I mail my ballot?

No. All ballots are separated from the return envelope before the ballots are inspected. This process ensures confidentiality.

When will election results be known?

All ballots are counted on election day - none are counted before. No results can be announced until 8:00 p.m. on election night.

Can the public watch the election process?

All steps of the process are open to observation by the public. The major steps include:

  • Preparation for mailing (about one month before the election).
  • Ballot reception and signature verification (during the two weeks before the election).
  • Opening envelopes and preparing ballots for counting (may start 7 days before election day).
  • Counting ballots (election day).

Why don't all candidates appear in the voters' pamphlet?

Although not required, each candidate has the opportunity to submit a picture and statement regarding his or her candidacy. The text of the statements is printed as submitted.

What if my signature has changed?

Complete a new voter registration form and submit it to the County Clerk's Office.
