One election after another


With one election down and two more to go, the San Diego County Registrar of Voters office is busy as a beehive. California had their first "Bifurcated" Primary this year. A bifurcated primary is the title given when the presidential primary election is on a separate date than the direct primary election. The direct primary election is coming up quickly - it's on June 3rd - and the registrar of voters office is stepping it back into full gear for the next election.

First on their agenda is getting poll workers - who are trained and paid for their one-day job. It's the perfect opportunity to do something to help your community (but the plus is that your reward isn't only appreciation, but it's also money). People speaking all languages are needed, but primarily Spanish, Filipino and Vietnamese.

Make sure you register to vote so that you can vote in the June 3rd election!
