League of Women Voters of Merced County

It’s election day! Merced County League Of Women Voters members gathered in Courthouse Park to remind people to vote. We had lots of positive responses, including one person who put their ballot receipt out the window for us. You can vote at the American Legion Hall, and at the Merced County elections department until 8 PM today.

SB 73 is now law! This urgent legislation reinforces state authority, protects ballot security, and guarantees a full and fair vote count free from improper interference.

At a time when partisan actors are threatening our election officials and probing local infrastructure, California is sending a clear message: our elections will be governed by law, expertise, and transparent processes - not pressure from the current federal administration or unauthorized intervention.

Thank you to Senator Sabrina Cervantes and Senator Tom Umberg for authoring this essential bill, and to Governor Gavin Newsom for signing it into law. Read the Governor’s press release: https://bit.ly/SB73LAW.

ENCOURAGE YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS TO VOTE !!!
