Michael Vu from the SD County Registrar of Voters provided us with up to date voting information for San Diego County. He has made his rounds to several Democratic clubs and his presentation last night focused on voting day. The Registrar of Voters is prepared for Nov 3 and has many protocols in place to ensure health and safety of voters. Michael gave us up to date information on the number of ballots returned by mail and the number returned as of yesterday was significantly greater during the same period in the last election. San Diego Registrar is well prepared to handle voters on voting day!
