Early Voting Is Underway! How You Can Vote Right Now In The 2020 Election

We’ve been waiting four years for this, and the time has arrived! The 2020 Elections is now officially underway, as San Francisco started in-person early voting on Monday. You can now officially vote today, tomorrow, or any weekday up until Election Day, November 3. Once you get your mail-in ballot, you can take that baby down to a San Francisco Voting Center and vote when you want.

Before you vote, check out the Broke-Ass Stuart Voter Guide for guidance on the many candidates and measures on your ballot. If you’re nervous that they might somehow screw up your ballot, we also have this handy explainer on how to make sure your ballot gets counted with information on how to check yo/ur voter registration, and checking the status of your mail-in ballot.

Here it is! #EarlyVoting has begun in San Francisco!
