Are You Registered to Vote?
There’s a statewide presidential primary coming up in March – and even before that, some local jurisdictions are holding special elections on Tuesday, Nov. 7. If you’re registered to vote, you can have your say on important decisions affecting our communities, our state and our nation.
That’s why it’s important for college students to register – and vote. It’s easy to register online – and if you’re not sure whether you’ve already registered, it’s easy to check.
You'll find more information about upcoming elections by visiting the De Anza Votes webpage at deanza.edu/vote.
- The deadline to register is Monday, Oct. 23, for the Nov. 7 special elections in Los Altos and the San Jose-Evergreen Community College District.
- Ballots will be mailed to all registered voters in communities that are holding elections.
- You can vote by mail as soon as you receive your ballot.
You can see if you're already registered to vote by checking the Secretary of State's website. Once you're registered, you'll have three ways to vote – mail, drop box or in person. You can learn more at deanza.edu/vote.
You can also visit the California Secretary of State’s election information website at sos.ca.gov/elections and learn about the California Students Vote Project at sos.ca.gov/elections/castudentsvote.
