August 30 was the last day to register online or with a paper registration form. But anyone who missed this deadline can still register and vote on Early Voting days: Friday, September 10, Saturday, September 11, Monday, September 13 and also on election day September 14. Be sure to check your CC County Voter Information Guide for your regional early voting site’s hours. The times may vary.
If you are registered, you should have received your ballot in the mail. If you did not receive a mail-in ballot, your registration may not be up to date. Use the in-person voting sites to re-register and vote!
Clayton and Antioch Libraries have invited LWV Diablo Valley to join them in celebrating National Voter Registration Day, September 28th. We would love to hear from members who are interested in registering voters at these library locations and also at any other libraries that may reach out to the League for this nation-wide celebration.
As we look toward 2022, and the June primaries, we will need more of you to jump into the circle with Voter Services!
