From UCCA’s president Diane Ahern: One way we can shape our future is to vote in the Tuesday, November 8, General Election. Due to redistricting and redrawn boundary maps, many voting districts have changed. At the City Council level, University City will vote in our new City Council District 6 with the communities of Mira Mesa, Sorrento Valley, MCAS Miramar, Kearney Mesa, and parts of Scripps Ranch.
SD County News Center: Voters can take advantage of early voting at an additional 179 Vote Centers starting Saturday, Nov. 5. That will make a total of 218 centers open for the four days leading up to and including Election Day. Voters can cast their ballot at any one of the Vote Centers in the county. The hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Monday, Nov. 7. All locations will be open again on Election Day, Nov. 8, when voting hours change to 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. You can find a Vote Center location near you at sdvote.com.
Under the Voter’s Choice Act (VCA), voters choose when, where and how to vote. Voters who received a ballot in the mail may return it: By U.S. Postal Service (as long as it’s postmarked by Nov. 8, Election Day), at a secure Ballot Drop Box location, or vote in person at a Vote Center near you.
Vote Centers: In the University City and Clairemont areas, Vote Centers are now open at:
- ALCOTT ELEM SCHOOL
- DOYLE RECREATION CENTER
