Voters Cast Your Ballots Early in Mission Viejo

MISSION VIEJO, CA — The city of Mission Viejo is one of a handful of Orange County cities that will serve as a Vote Center, providing registered voters the chance to cast their ballots early – even on weekends.

The Orange County Registrar of Voters is set to begin early in-person voting for theNovember 8 Presidential General Election in Mission Viejo and five other loca tions in the county. These convenient Vote Centers will operate from October 29 through November 7.

“The city of Mission Viejo is honored to be one of the first sites in Orange County to host a Voting Center, which will provide our residents and those in nearby communities with a convenient service that has never been available before,” said City Clerk Karen Hamman. “Registered voters will have the chance to cast their ballots early and in person and avoid the rush of Election Day.”

Casting a ballot early is ideal for many voters who don’t want to vote by mail but can’t make it to their polling place on Election Day. Along with the City of Mission Viejo, the Registrar of Voters has teamed up with cities of Anaheim and Irvine as well as the Westminster Branch Library and Costa Mesa Neighborhood Community Center to offer these early voting services for the upcoming election. Drive-thru ballot drop off will also be offered at select locations, including Mission Viejo.

In addition, early in-person voting will also take place at the Registrar of Voters' office in Santa Ana. For a complete list of services, locations, dates and times, visithttp://www.ocvote.com/votecenter.
