As the final days of the Primary Election draw near, the timeline for unregistered citizens to participate is tightening. After Monday, it will be too late to register to vote and receive a ballot by mail. Monday is also the last day to return a voted ballot through the mail.

But fear not. Monday is also the day six Voter Service and Polling Centers open, where citizens can register to vote, get a ballot, and take advantage of other services.
