Early voting is available Oct. 26 through Oct. 28 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Galleria at Tyler in Riverside on the first floor in front of Forever 21, the Westfield Palm Desert on the first floor in front of the Macy’s Furniture Gallery, and The Promenade in Temecula on the first floor in front of the Macy’s Women’s Store (entry wing).
Early voting also is available leading up to Election Day at the Registrar of Voters’ office, Monday through Friday (excluding holidays) from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.; on Saturday (Oct. 27) and on Nov. 3 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The registrar’s office, 2724 Gateway Drive in Riverside, is open on Election Day from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Registered voters may attend any of the early voting sites and either drop off a vote-by-mail ballot or vote on an electronic voting unit.
Early voting provides access to voters unable to make it to the polls on Election Day and those who would like their vote to be among the first counted and reported on Election Night. Voters are encouraged to cast their ballot as soon as possible so that it can be included in the first Election Night results posted shortly after 8 p.m.
