For the next week or so, in homes all over California, ballots will be arriving for the June 2 primary.<\/p>\n

Since 2020, a ballot has been mailed to every active registered voter in the state \u2014 more than 23 million, by last count. The time to choose is drawing nigh.<\/p>\n

In addition to the race for governor, Californians will vote in contests for seven other statewide offices, the Board of Equalization \u2014 which oversees the property tax system \u2014 and a great many congressional, legislative and local races, including the primary for Los Angeles mayor.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s a voter to do?<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve waited your entire life for a candidate like Republican Chad Bianco, the Riverside County sheriff running for governor, or you\u2019ve been jonesing to cast a gubernatorial ballot for Democrat Katie Porter from the moment she whipped out her famous whiteboard, the choice is easy. Fill out that ballot and toss it in the mail, stat! No postage needed.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t mess around,\u201d said Paul Maslin, a veteran Democratic campaign strategist. (His candidate for governor, Betty Yee, quit the race late last month, so he\u2019s a neutral observer at this point.)<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you have pretty good inkling what you want to do,\u201d Maslin urged, \u201cvote.\u201d<\/p>\n

But if, like many, you\u2019re not wed to a particular candidate, what then? If you\u2019re worried about mailing in your ballot and then having some awful, Eric Swalwell-like revelations surface, or if you fret about wasting your vote by supporting someone who drops out before June 2, then what?<\/p>\n

There are no do-overs in a California election. Once you\u2019ve cast your ballot, you\u2019ve made your choice. That\u2019s it, however sorry you may be.<\/p>\n

Which is why Republican strategist Rob Stutzman, who\u2019s worked in California politics for decades, urged voters not to mail their ballot too soon. Like Maslin, he\u2019s unaffiliated with any of the gubernatorial campaigns.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a slow-developing race,\u201d Stutzman said of the contest for governor, the marquee attraction on the June ballot. \u201cThese are still relatively little-known candidates. There\u2019s going to be a lot more campaigning to go in the weeks ahead. [So] unless you feel really strongly about somebody, I\u2019d hang on to that ballot and see what happens over the next several weeks.\u201d<\/p>\n

Then again, with all the talk of clamping down on mail-in ballots and concerns about processing delays by a stretched-thin Postal Service, is there a danger of waiting too long to vote? What if your ballot arrives past the deadline to be tallied? <\/p>\n

In March, the U.S. Supreme Court strongly signaled a likelihood it would require mail ballots to be received by election day if they are to be counted as legal. As it stands, California accepts mail-in ballots that were cast before the end of election day, so long as they arrive no later than seven days after.<\/p>\n

The court seems unlikely to issue its ruling before the June primary \u2014 but that\u2019s not guaranteed.<\/p>\n

So is there a sweet spot, somewhere between voting in haste and having your ballot go to waste?<\/p>\n

The Official Voter Information Guide, produced by California\u2019s secretary of state, urges those voting by mail to \u201creturn your ballot … as soon as you receive it.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Kim Alexander, head of the nonpartisan California Voter Foundation, falls into the wait-a-bit camp. \u201cDon\u2019t vote too early,\u201d she counseled, \u201cbecause this is a very dynamic election.\u201d<\/p>\n

Once you\u2019ve made up your mind, her best advice is to mail your ballot at least a full week before election day, which is May 26, to ensure it arrives on time to be processed and counted. If someone wants to drop their ballot off in person, either at a vote center or secure drop box, Alexander suggests doing so by May 30, which is three days before the election.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe good news,\u201d she said, \u201cis that under a new state law … all county election offices will be open at least six hours on Saturday, May 30, for voters to come vote in person or to turn in their vote-by-mail ballots.\u201d<\/p>\n

Voting in person is an option right up until 8 p.m. on election day, even if you received a ballot in the mail. That applies everywhere in California, save for three sparsely populated, rural counties \u2014 Alpine, Plumas and Sierra \u2014 which conduct their elections entirely by mail. Bring your unused vote-by-mail ballot to your local polling place and swap it for a polling-place ballot you can use instead.<\/p>\n

For procrastinators or those wanting to wait until election day to mail their ballot, they run the risk that it won\u2019t be postmarked until after <\/i> June 2. That means it won\u2019t be counted, regardless of when it arrives at their county elections office.<\/p>\n

\u201cVoters who want to hold out as long as possible … ought to be planning to turn their ballot into a drop box or a voting site and not use the mail at all,\u201d Alexander said.<\/p>\n

Having spent decades working to make voting easier and elections safer and smoother, Alexander knows that voting by mail has made many people miss \u201cthe election day experience.\u201d (Things like bringing the kiddos into the voting booth, or posing for selfies with an \u201cI Voted\u201d sticker.)<\/p>\n

Her suggestion is to find other ways to mark the occasion.<\/p>\n

\u201cHelp somebody else go and vote,\u201d Alexander suggested, \u201cor volunteer to help with an organization\u201d running a get-out-the-vote operation.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you want to help election officials get ahead on the vote count\u201d \u2014 a source of repeated upset as the country awaits California\u2019s lagging results \u2014 \u201cyou can be part of the solution by getting your own ballot in just a little bit earlier.\u201d<\/p>\n

All of which sound like fine ideas. That way you can celebrate election day and<\/i> make sure your ballot isn\u2019t cast for naught.<\/p>\n
