Ballots have been mailed to all registered voters in Butte County on February 5th.  The County Clerk will be mailing two postcards to alert voters about the ballot coming and to remind them to vote. If you have not received a ballot, please go to any Voter Assistance Center (see below) to get a ballot and vote.

No. Postage for your ballot is prepaid, making mailing your ballot free of expense.

​

3. Is a Signature required on the back of the envelope?

Yes. For your ballot to be officially counted you must sign and date the back of your envelope. Your signature on your ballot will be compared to the signature on your voter registration card and other signatures of record, to ensure that they match.

​

4. Must a ballot be in an envelope when deposited in a Ballot Drop Box?

Yes. A ballot which is not in a signed and dated envelope will not be counted. If you need a replacement ballot with an envelope, please go to any Voter Assistance Center.

​

5. Can I vote at my usual polling place?

No. There are no traditional polling places. There are a few Voter Assistance Centers and Ballot Drop Boxes.
