Orange County's Voting Tip of the Day: Be careful to not include two ballots in your envelope

May 24, 2016 - It's important to remind voters to only include their voted ballot in the ballot return envelope (not additional ballots). Occasionally we receive two ballots in one return envelope - and it almost always is the ballot of the spouse, significant other, child, etc. When two are included it's impossible to determine which ballot should be applied to the voter in the household. To be fair, this is a very small number, but it is our desire to ensure that every vote is counted - take a moment to review that you've only included the ballot you have voted in your return envelope.
