## Resource

California voters can still mail in their ballots—no matter the legal drama. Despite a federal push by President Trump to restrict mail-in voting via USPS, courts have blocked those changes, and officials are urging everyone to send ballots early. Counties are preparing backup plans, including mobile voting stations, while critics warn the USPS’s new tracking system is rushed and risky. With multiple options available, election workers say early voting helps ensure every vote counts—and might even boost turnout.
