Here is information on Upcoming Elections, Registering to Vote, Finding your Polling Place, and much more.

Register to Vote

Are you registered to vote? Do you want to change your party, your address, your name? Do you have other questions? Start here.
Registering to Vote in California provides information about how to register, deadlines, requirements, political parties, registration drives, living overseas, and much more.

Voter Information

Smart Voter: find your complete ballot for elections with nonpartisan information about candidates and ballot measures. And your polling place. You will save time by using Smart Voter's handy, consolidated and well organized online information. Also, archives are available to show results of previous elections.
Elections in California provides information on preparing to vote, voting (in person, by mail, if you've moved), voting rights, taking a friend to vote, results of past elections, etc.
Guide to Government is our electronic version of the popular "Facts for Voters" pamphlet found in libraries and our League meetings. It provides information about our representatives, their positions, and also has links to federal, state, and local governmental information.

Speakers' Bureau Presentations

At election time, League members engage in voter service activities such as cable TV broadcasts. Typically, League members present the Pros and Cons of ballot measures. In the photo shown here, members introduced the Smart Voter website to the Arab American Cultural Center in San Jose. This is only one example of the presentations given by League members. See our calendar.
