The special consolidated election for the 80th State Assembly District and San Diego City Council District No. 4 takes place Tuesday, May 21. Do you know where your polling place is located?
You can find it listed on the back of the Sample Ballot and Voter Information Pamphlet sent to your home or you can use the polling place locator online. Type in your address and click submit to find your neighborhood polling place. You can also view your sample ballot online. The elections are being held to fill the two remaining years in the terms for the two districts because the elected officials resigned their respective positions to take other posts.
Despite the new redistricting boundaries, State law requires the 2001-2010 district boundaries be used to fill the San Diego City Council District No. 4 vacancy because those voters elected the original candidate. Voters who have questions on whether they live within the former boundaries can check here. The updated redistricting boundaries will be in effect for the vacancy in the 80th State Assembly District.
If you vote-by-mail but haven’t mailed your ballot yet, you will need to drop off your ballot at any polling place in San Diego County or the Registrar of Voters office any time between 7 a.m. and 8 p.m. tomorrow. The office is located at 5201 Ruffin Road, Suite I, in Kearny Mesa at the corner of Clairemont Mesa Boulevard and Ruffin Road. A postmark will not be acceptable.
For voters who need language assistance, election materials are also available in Spanish, Filipino, Vietnamese, and Chinese.
