I signed 2 EOs that jump started our mail in ballot process.

We are providing drop off sites and safe voting sites.

I signed legislation to double down on those commitments.

And have a provision that allows 17 extra days to collect ballots.

Because we believe in DEMOCRACY.

I don't have any choice. I have to put my ballot in a mailbox. But I know Governor Newsom is going to make sure my ballot gets to where it needs to go! I'm mailing it out the day after I receive it. With extra postage.

Michelle Steel (Chair of OC Board of Supervisors) seems to love suing Newsom. She's a real piece of work. She doesn't believe in science, and like all Republicans, doesn't believe in democracy.
