Information about the Voter's Choice Act

The Voter’s Choice Act comes to Marin County.

General Information

The Voter’s Choice Act is a law that allows counties to offer voters more choices for how, when, and where they vote. What changed? Now, all active registered voters are automatically mailed a ballot, early voting is expanded for more days, and voters may vote in-person at a regional vote center.

ALL active registered voters are automatically mailed a ballot and have three ways to return it:

  •  By Mail. (No stamp needed!)
  •  At a Secure Ballot Drop Box. (No stamp needed!)
  •  At a vote center.

Voters may vote in-person at ANY vote center in Marin County. Assigned, neighborhood polling places are replaced by regional vote centers that open at least 3 days before Election Day with MORE services:

  •  Register to vote & vote the same day.
  •  Replace a lost or damaged ballot.
  •  Early voting. Vote before Election Day!
  •  Vote with an accessible voting machine.
  •  Request help.

It’s easy! Voting by mail saves time, is safe, and is free! And, there are many ways to return a vote by mail ballot:

  1. Vote your ballot; insert and seal it inside the mailing envelope that came with your ballot.
  2. Sign the outside of the envelope; the ballot cannot be counted without your signature!
  3. Return your voted ballot by mail (to postmark on or before Election Day), or take it to any Vote Center or Official Ballot Drop Box.
