Vote-By-Mail Ballots Must Arrive by Nov. 4

Janie Costa/TurlockCityNews.com

With campaigns on the homestretch and Election Day less than one week away, individuals who are registered to vote absentee or by-mail, instead of going to the polls, should note a variety of things to ensure their vote is counted.

Ballots must be received by the Stanislaus County Elections Office by the time polls close at 8:00 p.m. on Election Day, Nov. 4. Vote-by-mail ballots that arrive late will not be counted.

After your ballot is complete, double check to make sure all required information on the envelope is completed.

Of note, a vote-by-mail ballot that is postmarked by Nov. 4 does not mean the ballot will be delivered by 8:00 p.m. Election Day, and therefore would not be counted.

You may return your completed vote-by-mail ballot three ways:

  • Mail the ballot in advance to the Stanislaus County Election Official: Lee Lundrigan, County Clerk-Recorder, 1021 I Street, Suite 101, Modesto, CA 95354-2331
  • Return the ballot in person to a polling place in Stanislaus County on Election Day; polling places will be open from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Nov. 4.
  • Return the ballot in person on Election Day to the Stanislaus County Election Office which is combined with the Clerk-Recorder’s office, located at 1021 I St., Suite 101, Modesto, at the corner of 11th and I streets

You may also authorize a relative or person living in your household to return the ballot on your behalf.

All valid vote-by-mail ballots are counted in every election in California, regardless of the outcome or closeness of any race.

Lee Lundrigan, Stanislaus County Clerk-Recorder, encourages individuals to mail in ballots as soon as possible, but noted ballots must reach the County Election Office by Tuesday, Nov. 4 at 8:00 pm to be counted.

Lundrigan suggested that ballots be mailed by Friday, Oct. 31, but no later than Nov. 1; she stated that if someone is concerned about their ballot arriving on time, they can drop it off at a polling place instead of mailing via the postal service.

  • PaulWatkins on How does a real estate agency work? "Hi Dans Andrew, I'm glad you have made the right decision because a real estate agency is a promising career. Real estate agency involves dealing with properties either for selling or purchasing. When a client comes to a real estate agency to sell a property, it is the estate agent's job to find a buyer. If the agent finds a buyer and closes the deal at a good price for both parties, the estate agent gets a 1% commission from both buyer and seller. This is how real estate agencies work, and estate agents earn."

  • dans on How to choose the right weight loss clinic? "A reputable weight loss clinic should preferably include counseling while being overseen by a doctor or other qualified medical expert. However, some weight-loss facilities allow clients to quickly obtain weight-loss medications and leave without providing a thorough medical history or seeking a physician's opinion. You should stay away from these types of locations because they're dangerous and probably won't result in long-term weight loss. Find a facility that focuses on the behavioral treatment or lifestyle counseling instead. They can provide you with the tools you need to make healthy decisions and advice on how to fit exercise into your daily schedule. Some of these tactics include keeping track of your meals and keeping a weekly workout log."
