| What Can You Do at a Vote Center? Open four or 11 days, Vote Centers are one-stop locations for all things voting. Vote Centers allow you to not only vote, but to solve voter registration issues, register to vote, get a replacement ballot, and receive general assistance. You can visit any of our Vote Centers throughout the county – pick the one that is most convenient to you, whether it’s one close to where you live, work, shop, or play. Mark your Vote-By-Mail ballot at home and drop it off at a Vote Center. Pick one of the locations with a drive-thru ballot drop off if you don’t want to get out of your car. You can also walk into one to drop off the Vote-By-Mail ballot you’ve already marked in the signed return envelope, or check in to sign the roster to vote an in-person ballot. You can either feed the ballot you marked at home through a ballot scanner without the envelope or receive a new in-person ballot to mark in a voting booth before you cast it. All Vote Centers in Orange County are ADA accessible and have ample parking. They feature the following resources for voters with disabilities:
Language assistance is available at all Vote Centers as well. Translated reference ballots in Farsi, Japanese, Tagalog, Hmong, Indonesian, Khmer, Nepali, and Punjabi for eligible precincts will be available at all Vote Centers. All election information and ballots are translated into Chinese, Korean, Spanish, and Vietnamese. For more information and to find a Vote Center near you, visit ocvote.gov/votecenter. |
