Election Day in California, 7 am to 8 pm, at your polling place or at your County Registrar to Save Rent Control (No on 98/Yes on 99) and in SF, for affordable housing (Yes on F/No on G)

The lives of millions of California tenants, overwhelmingly workingclass, are on the line this crucial June 3 election with a possible repeal of rent control, Proposition 98, as we will be almost immediately homeless if Prop 98 passes. Every single pro-rent control voter MUST VOTE TODAY if you did not already vote absentee. If you have not mailed your absentee ballot, take it to your polling place or your County Registrar TODAY. The polls are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. You can vote at your polling place listed on the back of your County booklet or at your County Registrar listed at the Secretary of State and the League of Women Voter (SmartVoter)'s websites below. If there is any question about your being registered, demand a provisional ballot. To save rent control: No on 98/Yes on 99. In San Francisco, for affordable housing: Yes on F/No on G. You do not have to vote on every item on the ballot but please vote on these measures. PLEASE VOTE. Because of the urgency, many polling place lookup sites are listed here:
