Deadline to register to vote in Nov. 6 election is Monday

Published: October 18, 2012 

Monday is the last day to register to vote for the Nov. 6 election, San Luis Obispo County Clerk-Recorder Julie Rodewald is reminding county residents.

Voter registrations must be postmarked or received in her office by 5 p.m. Monday. Prospective voters also can use the California online voter registration system available at http://registertovote.ca.gov/. Those who have moved, or wish to change their political party, must complete a new voter registration card.

Voters who register on time will receive a postcard with the location of their polling place. They will not receive the sample ballot booklet issued by the county or the state voter guide, but both publications are available on the respective websites: www.slovote.com and www.sos.ca.gov.

Paper registration forms are available throughout San Luis Obispo County at post offices, city halls, libraries, banks, notary offices, utility companies, and the Department of Motor Vehicles.

To be eligible to register to vote, a person must be a U.S. citizen, 18 years old on or before Election Day, and not in prison or on parole for a felony conviction.

Rodewald encourages those with questions to call her office at 781-5228.
