Plumas County is Vote by Mail

Vote by Mail Ballots

As of 2016, Plumas County is all Vote by Mail. If you are a registered voter within Plumas County, you will receive a ballot in the mail.

Should you prefer to vote in person, you may bring your unvoted ballot to the Quincy Courthouse polling location. During every election period, we will have voting booths set up within the Courthouse for your convenience.

If you have already voted your ballot, but do not wish to put it in the mail, you may drop your voted ballot into the Ballot Drop-Box located just outside the Quincy Courthouse. You may also bring your ballot into the Plumas County Elections office located within the Quincy Courthouse. We will have a Drop-Box available for use within the office during active election periods.

*All ballots that are voted or returned in-person need to be turned in by 8 pm on election night.

Per Assembly Bill 37 the State of California has mandated that all registered voters will receive a Vote by Mail Ballot: 

"Existing law requires county elections officials to mail a ballot to every registered voter for all elections proclaimed or conducted prior to January 1, 2022...This bill would extend the requirements to mail a ballot to every registered voter to all elections and apply them to all local elections officials."

For further questions regarding Assembly Bill 37, please contact the California Secretary of State's Elections Division at (916) 657-2166.

My Physical and/or Mailing Address has Changed

If you have moved, changed your mailing address by adding or closing a post office box, and haven't completed a new Voter Registration Form notifying us, you may not receive a voter information guide and a ballot for upcoming elections. Completing a change of address card at the Post Office DOES NOT update your voter registration. A new Voter Registration Form is required when you have changes. 

You may re-register and change your physical and mailing address here.
