Good morning. Today’s the day. Go vote. Vote for each other. Vote with pride. Vote with hope 🗽
If you put your ballot in a drop box or take it to a vote center today, your ballot will be included in the 8:30 PM election results tomorrow. Drop Your Ballot!
Ballot Tracker is awesome! When you get the message "your vote has been counted" it means your envelope passed the signature verification process and your vote will show up in Election Night results. Ballot Tracker and other helpful info on our website. conejotogether.com/vote
