Updated for 2025 Special Election
AUBURN, Calif. — The Placer County Elections Office would like to remind voters that the voting period for the November 4, 2025 Statewide Special Election has officially begun.
As per California law, vote-by-mail ballots for all active, eligible voters in Placer County have been mailed. Voters who do not receive their voting materials by Oct. 10 are encouraged to contact the Elections Office.
Voters can return their ballots by mail, by using one of 20 official ballot drop boxes located throughout the county (drop boxes are open), or in person to any open vote center starting Oct. 25. Additionally, voting via vote-by-mail ballot is now available daily, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., at the Elections Office at 3715 Atherton Road in Rocklin.
Due to this statewide special election, vote center and drop box locations have changed. Voters are highly encouraged to review their voting materials closely—especially the lists of locations and their days and hours of operation—and to consider casting their ballots early to avoid wait times.
Ballots returned by mail or drop box must be sealed in their return envelopes and signed on the back under the flap, next to the red X. Mailed ballots must be postmarked on or before Election Day, Nov. 4, and received by our office no later than Nov. 12. It is recommended voters mail their ballots early, especially if they are currently out of the county.
Ballots returned via drop box are retrieved by elections staff and brought back to the Elections Office for immediate processing. Drop box locations and hours of operation are listed below and can be found on the Placer County Elections website.
