NEVADA CITY, Calif. – The Nevada County Elections Office is informing voters of the mailing of residency confirmation postcards this week to both active and inactive registered voters. This effort goes beyond legal requirements and is intended to ensure voter registration records are accurate and up to date ahead of the June 2, 2026 Statewide Direct Primary Election.

If you do not return the residency confirmation card, no action will be taken, and your voter registration will remain unchanged. Information received is only used to update voter records in accordance with state law. Only the voter may cancel a registration record.

The postcards include forwarding service to help reach all voters. They ask recipients to confirm whether they still live at the address on file, whether their mailing address is still correct, or to notify the Elections Office if someone listed no longer lives at or receives mail at that address.

“We are sending out postcards to ensure voters receive the correct ballot and election materials, maintain accurate voter rolls and support the integrity of our local elections,” said Registrar of Voters Armando Salud-Ambriz.

Voters are encouraged to review the instructions on the postcard, select the appropriate option, sign, and return it as soon as possible. In addition to mailing the postcard back, voters may also:

• Drop off the postcard at the Elections Office, 950 Maidu Ave, Suite 210, Nevada City
• Submit a clear PDF photo of the completed card to elections.mail@nevadacountyca.gov
• Use the 24/7 secure drop box located outside the Nevada County Government Center, 950
  Maidu Ave., Nevada City between Feb. 4-March 6.

Voters may check their voter status at voterstatus.sos.ca.gov or update their registration information
