The California Secretary of State's website allows California voters to check if they are registered, change their language preference, see their polling location, and more. Visit https://voterstatus.sos.ca.gov/ and use either (1) your California driver's license or ID card number or (2) the last 4 digits of your social security number to confirm your identity.  Contact your county election office or the Secretary of State if you do not have those identification items and want to confirm your registration.

Another option is to call the California Voter Hotlines, available in 10 languages and TTY/TDD for individuals with communication impairments:

• (800) 345-VOTE (8683) - English
• (800) 232-VOTA (8682) - español / Spanish
