Date:

SANTA ANA, CA - Today the Orange County Registrar of Voters is proud to announce Boost Mobile as the latest brand to join its unique corporate sponsorship program for 2016. The Orange County Registrar of Voters corporate sponsorship program is designed to engage businesses in the election process by having them provide technology services, locations for polling places, or volunteers to work the polls.

Voting location is impacted due to voluntary evacuation orders.

Date:

SANTA ANA, CA – October 27, 2020 – Today's pop-up mobile voting event, scheduled for 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 9801 Newport Ave., Santa Ana, has been cancelled as a result of the Silverado Fire evacuations.

The location is in the voluntary evacuation zone for the Silverado Fire and associated traffic may prevent resources from entering impacted areas.

Official election observation training will provide any member of the public with important rules and regulations

Date:

SANTA ANA, CA - The Registrar of Voters is offering free training for any member of the public, or group, that wishes to observe the election process in a polling place on Election Day.

California election law governs the conduct of elections, which includes the rules surrounding the public observation process. The training, which is being offered on three different days, includes important information that will cover the following topics:

October 27, 2016 - Think ahead to Election Day for a moment. You might be in a hurry, but it's possible that your polling place will be crowded at the moment you arrive. You can avoid this scenario by choosing the time you want to vote - on your schedule - by visiting one of our six Vote Centers in Orange County. These Vote Centers will be open beginning this coming Saturday, October 29th and will be open everyday through November 7th. Don't have time to vote in-person? Consider voting-by-mail - the fastest growing method of voting in Orange County. 

April 1, 2018 - It is increasingly difficult to recruit polling places, for a variety of reasons. For instance, a long-time polling place in an apartment complex clubhouse, located in Westminster (since 1994), recently told us that they no longer wanted to be a polling place due to parking and "space concerns". Voters don't understand these changes and dynamics, which make it demanding for voters and us alike.

May 24, 2016 - This is a question we receive quite often - especially from voters who only vote once every few years. When a voter fills out a registration form, one of the questions asked (in fact it's #14 on the California form) is "Do you want to register with a political party?". There are 8 possible answers, including major and minor parties, as well as declining to affiliate with a party (known as "No Party Preference, or NPP").
