October 26, 2016 - What if you still haven't received your ballot? There are a couple of clear options for you, but first an important point: If you changed your address after October 10th, and you normally receive your ballot every election, your ballot would have been sent to your old address. Why? When we mail the bulk of our ballots we must capture the data on a single day so that we can address the ballots.

Not to worry - you can request a second ballot (your first ballot will be voided) by visiting ocvote.com/second. California law requires your signature on a second request - you can mail, fax or scan and email back to us (instructions are included). Or you can visit one of our six early Vote Centers, opening on October 29th - full details at ocvote.com/votecenter.

One final word - we often receive calls back from voters who inform us that they had actually misplaced their ballot, but then found it later, which is why we've included an image below of what your ballot envelope looks like - just in case.
