It's Too Late for Snail Mail...Bring Your Ballot to City Hall

With about half of California's voters skipping the polling places in favor of mail-in-ballots, many were making last minute trips to the post office over the weekend. But if you haven't yet mailed in your ballot---don't, because it won't get there in time to be counted. (Postmarks don't count--your ballot must be in the county registrar's office by 8 p.m. Tuesday.)

Instead, you may drop your ballot off in the City Clerk's Office on the second floor of San Carlos City Hall, 600 Elm St.

According to San Carlos City Clerk Christine Boland, the ballot box is available during business hours, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday and Tuesday.

"Ballots may also be dropped off at any polling place, even outside of San Carlos," said Boland. She added that voters may also take their ballots to the county elections office at 40 Tower Rd. in San Mateo, or to 555 County Center in Redwood City.

All ballots must be turned in by the times the polls close at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Election Day.
