Vote with Confidence in California

To the Editor:

By now all eligible California voters should have received their mail-in ballot for the June 2 primary election. If you have not received your ballot, go to registertovote.ca.gov  to check your status and register to vote. 

The League of Women Voters reminds voters that elections as they are conducted in California are secure. Do not be misled by false claims of voter fraud. Multiple court decisions and research conducted by institutions across the political spectrum have debunked claims that election fraud is rampant. Voter fraud is rare and voting by non-citizens is practically non-existent. Voting by mail is secure, period. Claims of voter fraud are themselves fraudulent.

We urge you to study the candidates and the issues. Be an informed voter. Go to VOTE411.org to look up your personalized ballot. There you’ll find information on the candidates, their positions on the issues, and who supports them.

Your vote is your voice and your power. It may be the only power you have to influence the political decisions that affect your daily life. Use it. Make your voice heard. Make sure you are registered to vote and cast your ballot with confidence that your vote will be counted.
