Where's My Polling Place?

Don't know where to vote today? We've got the official answer if you live in El Cerrito, Kensington or anywhere else in Contra Costa County. (Warning: some election mailers contain wrong polling place locations.)

Today, Nov. 6, is election day in California. Do you know where to vote?

Polling places move around. If you don't know where yours is and if you live in Contra Costa County, the county elections division has a website where you can plug in your address and find the answer:

Make sure you use the official listing from the county elections division, provided on the website or on the election notice mailed to your home. Some "Democratic" election mailers with endorsements sent out by a private firm list an incorrect polling place for the household that the mailer was sent to.

If you have a mail-in ballot that you didn't mail, you can drop it off at any polling place.
