Deadline Approaches To Request Vote-By-Mail Ballot For March 7 Election

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Los Angeles County election officials reminded voters Thursday that the deadline to request a vote-by-mail ballot for the March 7 election is Tuesday.

The County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk has mailed more than 2.2 million ballots to voters across the county.

Voters who still wish to request one can apply online at www.lavote.net by Feb. 28, use the back of their sample ballot or appear in person at 124000 Imperial Highway, 3rd Floor (Room 3002) in Norwalk.

All vote-by-mail ballots postmarked by Election Day will be counted if received within three days.

The consolidated municipal and special election includes the Los Angeles mayor's race and a number of municipal measures, as well as a county-wide initiative that would authorize a quarter-cent sales tax to fund services for the homeless.

The deadline to register to vote in the election was on Tuesday. Voters can check their registration status here.
