The recall ballot asks two questions:
1) Do you want to recall Governor Newsom? and
2) If the governor is recalled, who do you want to replace him?
If 50% or more vote NO, the governor would remain in office. If more than 50% vote YES, the governor would be removed from office and the person with the most votes would replace him.
Return your vote-by-mail ballot by mail with prepaid postage as long as it’s postmarked by September 14, 2021. You can also return the ballot in-person at a secure ballot drop box, to a voting location, or your county elections office by 8:00 p.m. on September 14, 2021.
In-person voting locations will offer voter registration, replacement ballots, accessible voting machines, and language assistance to those who need it.
