You don’t have to wait until March 7 to cast your ballot!

By The Editorial Board

The March 7th Consolidated Municipal and Special Elections will have seven (7) additional locations open March 4-5 (Saturday and Sunday) from 8am-4pm.

If you live in the greater Pasadena area, there is one location close to you in order to cast your ballot early:

Jackie Robinson Center
Multi-Purpose Room 400 - (Left of the main entrance)
1020 N. Fair Oaks Ave.
Pasadena, CA 91103

Parking
Park in the Jackie Robinson Center parking lot. Additional street parking available on Fair Oaks Ave.

Things to know

1. This location is also a drop-off location. If you already have your Vote by Mail ballot you do not need to wait in line.
2. You will not be using the ink-a-vote ballot used at a polling place, you will be bubbling in your selections on a Vote by Mail ballot.
3. If you are in line before 4pm you will still be allowed to vote.
4. Eligible Los Angeles County residents who missed the voter registration deadline will still be able to vote. Under California Election Law, Conditional Voter Registration (CVR) allows a prospective voter to conditionally register and cast a provisional ballot.
