In the Los Gatos-Saratoga Union High School District special mail ballot election, held May 7, voters have until Tuesday, June 4, to correct issues with their ballot envelope signatures.
According the the Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters, they still have 35 remaining ballots with signature issues, while there are two remaining ballots out of Santa Cruz County with such problems. These include ballots that were returned without the voter’s signature on the return envelope, and ballots with a signature that did not match ROV records.
The elections offices reached out directly to the affected voters to prod them correct these issues, noting completed forms can be returned in person, by mail, by email or even by fax.
