With the midterm election around the corner, it’s time to make that voting plan if you haven’t already. This week we met with Humboldt Clerk-recorder and Registrar of Voters Juan Pablo Cervantes to learn more about this election, the importance of voting and running for local office and the critical role of community in both his work and in democracy.

You can vote by placing your filled out and signed ballot in any official ballot drop box at any Vote Center, or in any U.S. Postal Service mailbox - as long as it is postmarked on or before November 3, or by voting in person at your local voting center.
