Election 2008

County Voters who have registered absentee can begin returning ballots today for the Nov. 4 election. Today is also the last day to register to vote in order to receive a sample ballot in the mail. The county registrar's office is extending its Monday hours to get more registrations processed by 9 p.m. To register to vote by today's deadline, visit the county registrar's office at 1555 Berger Drive in San Jose between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. Voter registration cards and instructions for returning them can also be picked up at the library. Get an online copy of the registration form from the California Secretary of State's website.

Come in to the library and see the Free2Vote display in the first floor boulevard. You can't miss the red, white and blue bunting and flag display panels. Another outstanding display by a talented, artisitic staff member. Registration cards can be found there and on the 2nd floor as well as Easy Voter Guides and other useful voter information. Remember, as always, you are free to ask if you have voting questions or any other kind of questions. (408) 615-2900 or Ask a Librarian via email.
