| Completing your Ballot As you complete your ballot before or on November 5, here are several tips to keep in mind:
It’s very important to sign your ballot envelope. Your ballot may not be counted without a signature. Once you have completed your Vote-by-Mail ballot, you can return it through the mail, place it in a secure Ballot Drop Box near you, or return it to one of our 184 Vote Center locations. As long as your ballot is postmarked by November 5 or dropped off in person by 8 p.m. on November 5, it will be eligible to be counted. If you would like to vote in person, our Vote Centers are open until 8 p.m. on November 5. To find a Vote Center or Ballot Drop Box convenient to you, visit our website at ocvote.gov/voting. |

| Election Equipment Security – Seals Ensuring a secure and accurate election is our top priority. All election equipment features numbered security seals to protect against tampering. Registrar of Voters staff apply the security seals to the voting equipment before deployment. As part of our strict chain of custody procedures, those seals are verified by staff each morning before the equipment is put into use throughout the voting period. Each night when staff close the Vote Centers, they attach a new security seal and record the number for comparison the next morning. If a seal is discovered one morning to be broken or compromised in any way, that piece of equipment is taken offline pending a thorough investigation. |
