MEET THE CANDIDATES: SF mayor's race
San Francisco officially opened its voting center at City Hall on Monday. Voters can come here through Election Day to pick up a ballot in their language, drop off their mail-in ballots or use voting equipment that supports people with sight or mobility issues.
"We expanded the voting center starting in 2016 'cause we expected to have a higher turnout here at City Hall of people using the voting center. We're just maintaining that structure to go forward," San Francisco Elections Chief John Arntz said.
MEET THE CANDIDATES: San Jose mayor's race
Four years ago, our last non-presidential election, only a quarter of California's registered voters cast a ballot in the June primary.
The state is trying to boost participation this time by replacing neighborhood polling places with "one-stop vote centers."
San Mateo and Napa are two of the five counties in the pilot program, which includes automatically sending a mail-in ballot to every voter.
