Election Day is fast approaching – November 8, 2022 – and we want to ensure that every eligible voter can exercise his/her/their right to vote freely, without fear, intimidation or violence before or on election day.

Universidad Popular continues educating voters about voting rights, assisting aspiring voters to register to vote and training election defenders/observers.

There is still time to talk to our family, friends and neighbors about the elections. With a power of 8 million voters, the Latinx community is the second-largest voting bloc in California. Our participation will influence who gets into office and who will have a voice for generations to come. Remember, democracy is healthier when everyone participates and votes.

Here are several important reminders:

• All registered voters have received or will receive their ballot in the mail. 
• You will have 3 ways to return your ballot
  • By Mail - You can mail back your ballot in the return envelope provided. No stamp required!
