VOLUME 13 NO. 38 CONGRATULATIONS CORPORAL GRANT CADZOW PREPARING FOR THE NEW VOTING PROCEDURES Mock Election To Be Held September 28-29, 10 am to 4 pm How we cast our votes is going to drastically change beginning with the Primary in March, 2020. Precinct polling places will be a thing of the past. Polling Centers will be open throughout LA County and any registered voter may use them, regardless of where you live. However, the most significant change will be in the way we vote. The system has been totaling updated and the use of modern technology for casting our votes is being introduced to the public now, so votes will be prepared by March. In fact, a mock election will be held on September 28-29, 2019. The LA County Registrar-Recorder is partnering with 50 locations across the County and inviting everyone to experience the new voting system, Voting Solutions for All People. This will be light and fun, no real contests from past or future elections. But you will vote on things like your favorite sports team, park or music venue! Select locations will have live DJs, surprise celebrities, food trucks and chances to win L.A. experi-ences such as: tickets to professional sports games, amusement parks, celebrity meet and greets and a whole lot more!
