National Voter Registration Day
is Tuesday
 
Tomorrow is National Voter Register Day.

SCCLD wants to help voters ahead of the November 3 Presidential Election. During curbside service hours on Tuesday, our community libraries will have a table set up with voter registration forms if you need them.

Please also visit our website, where we have resources and information about voting and elections in California and the United States. Here you can find out if you are registered to vote, how to vote online, and more.

The Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters also has information about voting centers, tracking your ballot, and ballot drop off locations. The ROV is still looking for Election Officers to help at Vote Centers leading up to Election Day. Paid stipends are offered. Learn more on their website.
