VOTE NOV. 3: Find your polling place
I've already received my California absentee ballot. Can I still vote in person?
YES! You must bring your non-voted by-mail ballot and give it to the polling place worker before voting a regular ballot.:
Absentee ballots must be received by the elections official no later than the close of polls (8:00 pm) on election day. You can return your absentee ballot by mail or in person to your County Elections Official. You can also return your ballot to any polling place in your county or by 8pm on election day.
Happy Halloween

CRUZ NUKES MEDIA AT DEBATE... https://t.co/ZkNjDSkNsy
— DRUDGE REPORT (@DRUDGE_REPORT) October 29, 2015
"Let me say something at the outset," the Senator from Texas said. "The questions asked in this debate illustrate why the American people don't trust the media."
"This is not a cage match. And you look at the questions -- Donald Trump, are you a comic book villain? Ben Carson, can you do math? John Kasich, will you insult two people over here? Marco Rubio, why don't you resign? Jeb Bush, why have your numbers fallen? How about talking about the substantive issues," Cruz said to commanding applause from the audience.
"Do we get credit for this one," Quintanilla asked Cruz?
"And Carl, I'm not finished yet. The contrast with the Democratic debate, where every thought and question from the media was, which of you is more handsome and why?" Cruz asked and then paused to cough.
"You have 30 seconds left to answer should you choose to do so," Quintanilla told the candidate.
"Let me be clear," Cruz said. "The men and women on this stage have more ideas, more experience, more common sense, than ever participant in the Democratic debate. That debate reflected a debate between the Bolsheviks and the Mensheviks."
"Nobody believes that the moderators have any intention of voting in a Republican primary," Cruz said.
