Elections Division

There were numerous early false reports of all the Vote Centers in Ventura County being down/closed. That was NOT the case. There were some intermittent technical issues that were quickly addressed and resolved. All sites remained open and no voter was denied the right to vote; some voters were redirected to a nearby Vote Center. Any issues call (805) 654-2664.
