Opening our Doors as a Vote Center

Santa Clara County ballots started being mailed on Monday. In Santa Clara County eligible voters can cast a ballot at ANY polling place in the county. Prince of Peace will once again open the Hall for voting. We are happy to offer our space for this important election.

During the Primary voting in March, participation was very low on Saturday & Sunday. By Tuesday, over 800 people voted at Prince of Peace. With 1,000,000 registered voters in the county, there is potential for many more in November. Our Hall will be open for four full days. Avoid the election day crowds and come early.
 
You can limit your time indoors, and around others, by filling in a ballot at home, then drop-off at the voting center. The benefit to dropping off, instead of mailing, is that the poll volunteers are trained to check that you signed the ballot in the correct place to ensure it will be counted quickly. Or you can vote in person on any of four days - October 31 through November 3. See open times above.

Covid Protocols include:

• Vote Center staff and voters are required to wear face masks inside of voter center space. Staff will be offering PPE (masks, gloves, and sanitizer) to voters while in line
