Election Day is just around the corner. But you don’t have to wait until Tuesday, November 3rd to vote. 

This year’s election is more important than ever, and our job is simple: cast a ballot.

Early voting has already begun and nearly 2 million people in L.A. County have voted!

This year, we’re doing everything we can to make it even easier to cast your vote. You can mail in your ballot, drop it off at any Vote Center or official drop box, or vote safely in-person.

Have you returned your Vote by Mail ballot? Learn how.

With the Election just days away, we are encouraging Angelenos to drop off their Vote by Mail ballots at any official drop box or Vote Center — to help get them in as quickly as possible. 

There are more than 400 official ballot drop boxes throughout L.A. County — including outside every one of our City’s Public Library locations — to help you easily and quickly return your ballot.

There are also hundreds of Vote Centers open across the region every day through November 3. This year, the Vote Centers include iconic L.A. landmarks like Dodger Stadium, Staples Center, the Hollywood Bowl, and many more. These sites allow plenty of space for physical distancing so you can vote safely.

If you missed the deadline to register, you can still register in person at any Vote Center.

If you’re heading to the polls in person on November 3rd, the City has your transportation needs covered — all LADOT and Metro rides will be free.

Angelenos should be prepared and ready to be patient when voting in-person on Election Day, as high turnout is expected across the country.

However you decide to vote, please make your voice heard.

We are just days away from the end of this election season. The stakes are high this year, so make sure your voice is heard, L.A. 

Thanks for being a voter, .

Eric Garcetti
Your Mayor
