It’s Election Day: Do you know where your ballot is?

Hopefully, the ballot is not still in your hands. Today at 8 p.m. is the deadline for any voters wanting to participate in the Portola Valley Elementary School District All-Mail Election. If the Elections Office doesn’t have your ballot by 8 p.m., it won’t count.

If you haven’t mailed in your ballot yet - stop! Don’t go to the post office; postmarks don’t count.

In an all-mail election, polling places are not open on Election Day. If voters still want to participate, ballots will have to be dropped off at one of the San Mateo County Universal Voting Centers located at:

40 Tower Road, San Mateo
555 County Center, Redwood City

If you’ve already submitted your Vote by Mail ballot, you can track and confirm your ballot receipt status by going onto www.shapethefuture.org. There, you can see when we mailed your ballot to you, and when we received it back.

While you’re on the website, make a bookmark so that you can go back to site easily later on tonight. At 8:05 p.m., we’ll be posting the first batch of semi-official results for the election on our results portal.
