LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass Nov. 5 released important election day information and encouraged Angelenos to exercise their right to vote.
“Voting centers are open throughout Los Angeles and the City has made preparations to keep Angelenos safe on Election Day and as results are announced,” said Mayor Bass. “I urge all Angelenos to get out and vote today.”
Where And When Can I Vote?
If you are voting by mail, you can find a list of ballot drop box locations at lavote.gov. You can also visit a Vote Center to drop off your mail-in ballot. All ballots must be postmarked or returned to an official drop box or vote center by election day. The Registrar will accept ballots postmarked by election day and received within 7 days after Election Day.
If you are voting in person, Vote Centers will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 5. Visit locator.lavote.gov or call 800-815-2666, and select option 1. Any voter can visit any Vote Center location and cast their ballot. The online locator application shows the approximate wait time at each location.

What Is Los Angeles Doing To Keep Voters Safe?
The City of Los Angeles Emergency Operations Center or EOC will be activated Nov. 5 to monitor election day voting and the response to election results. The EOC will determine future activation as the day progresses.
The LAPD department operations center will be activated and will have the maximum deployment on election day to ensure the safety of Angelenos and to hold people accountable for any unrest or destruction of property. LAPD is in coordination with our county, state, and federal partners – including the FBI, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, Joint Regional Intelligence Center, and others – to share information across jurisdictions to ensure the safety of Angelenos on and after Election Day.
Where and When will Election Results Be Posted?
Election results will be populated at results.lavote.gov. When Vote Centers close, Election Workers will complete their closing procedures and deliver their ballots to the Sheriff’s Deputies at a designated check-in center. Sheriff’s deputies then transport ballots from the check-in center to the ballot processing center to be processed and counted.
It is important to know that counting ballots and reporting results do not end on election night. All vote by mail ballots cast by election day and received within seven days from election day will be accepted, processed, and once verified, counted.
All conditional voter registration (same-day registration) and provisional ballots cast on election day are processed and added to the tally once they are cleared.
After election night, election results will be updated on results.lavote.gov between 4 p.m. and 5p.m. PT on the following dates:
Election results are expected to be certified by Tuesday, Dec. 3.
