PRIMARY ELECTION UPDATE

11-Day Vote Center Locations Open

Vote Centers in 19 convenient locations throughout Sacramento County will open beginning Saturday, May 23, 2026, for the June 2, 2026, Primary Election. At a Vote Center any Sacramento County resident may register to vote, request a replacement ballot, vote their ballot in person or use the assistive ballot marking device. Operation times vary prior to Election Day, so check the times and location details carefully.

Voters wishing to return their mail ballot still have time to use an Official Ballot Drop Box. Visit the Official Ballot Drop Box page on our website for more information on locations and times. Each Official Ballot Drop Box location has specific hours of operation. Those preferring to mail their ballot may use their pink postage paid envelope that came with their ballot. Mailed ballots must be postmarked on or before Election Day and received by 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, June 9. Voters must sign their ballot envelope in order for their ballot to be counted.

For more information, contact VRE at (916) 875-6451, or use the toll-free voter assistance hotline at (800) 762-8019. The hotline has the ability to connect voters with disabilities with TTY (Text Telephone).
