Remember to Vote! ☑️

California is holding an unusual special election this month to decide whether to recall the governor and replace him with someone else. It’s important for all eligible voters – including college students – to have their say.

It’s easy to vote: It only takes a few minutes to fill out the short ballot, but you must mail it in or drop it off by next Tuesday, Sept. 14.

  • Mail in your ballot. Postage is free!
  • Drop off your ballot at an official ballot Drop Box. There's a Drop Box on the De Anza campus that is accessible from Parking Lot A – on the sidewalk outside the Registration and Student Services Building entrance that faces Stevens Creek Boulevard. Or you can check online to find a Drop Box near you.
  • Bring your ballot in person to any county Vote Center. Check the county elections website to find one near you.

Voting procedures may vary in different counties; check with your county election office for more information.

You can learn more by visiting the California Secretary of State’s election website and the De Anza Votes webpage at deanza.edu/vote.
