This moment calls for all of us to vote our conscience.
I want to acknowledge that the news has been heavy lately. And it’s time like these that I look for ways to take action. For me, voting helps me feel like I’m doing something productive to better serve my community. If you’re registered to vote in California, I hope you’ll join me in voting in the primary election by June 7th.
There’s a lot on the line for our communities this election. Your vote is the easiest and most important way to make your voice heard and ensure that our San Gabriel Valley communities remain healthy and safe.
Ballots were mailed beginning on May 9, so you should have already received yours. If you haven’t voted yet, make a plan now! If you’ve already voted, check in with your family and friends and make sure they have a plan to vote.
Important dates to remember:
May 28---Vote Centers open throughout Los Angeles County
May 31---Last day to request a replacement Vote-By-Mail ballot. If you were expecting your ballot, but did not receive one in the mail, call (800) 815-2666 for assistance.
