The Marin County Elections Department will host a virtual public workshop Thursday, Sept. 29, to educate voters in advance of the Nov. 8 general election about changes implemented with the Voter’s Choice Act.

The Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution in May 2021 confirming plans to implement the Voter’s Choice Act, also called Senate Bill 450 or VCA.

One major change under VCA is a switch from Election Day polling places to several multi-day, regional vote centers at spots around the county. The other big change is that every active registered voter will automatically be mailed a vote-by-mail ballot packet starting 29 days before an election — a change most Marin County voters won’t notice because of the high rate of vote-by-mail voters, now more than 80%.

The workshop will give voters an opportunity to learn about changes well in advance of the election. Language services will be available as noted below. The videoconference will be recorded for later viewing.

Virtual Community Workshop, Thursday, September 29

Time: 6 p.m.

Register in advance for the workshop

The videoconference will be close-captioned

Interpreters will be available in Chinese (Mandarin), Spanish, Vietnamese, ASL, and CDI
