It's about that time again when San Diegans get to fulfill their civic duty and have their voices heard via votes.

Ballots were mailed out the week of Oct. 6, for the 2024 General Election and registered voters were able to start voting early, in-person on Oct. 7. The very next day on Oct. 8, ballot drop boxes opened.

Those who prefer the rush of the Election Day buzz can vote traditionally in person on Nov. 5, as well.

Before you cast your ballot, you'll want to research who and what you can vote for this November. This handy guide can help:
