VOTING HAS NOW STARTED!

As of Monday, May 10th,  the LA City Clerk will begin mailing out ballots to those who have successfully applied for one. You may begin voting as soon as you receive your ballot.

HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW IN ORDER TO VOTE!  – WHO CAN VOTE?


VNC Stakeholders who are 16 years or older on the day of the election (June 8, 2021) are eligible to vote in this year’s elections.  A “Stakeholder” is anyone who lives, works, or owns real property within the VNC’s boundaries, and you do not have to be a citizen of the United States.

You can vote once in each category- except the Community Interest Stakeholders, who can only vote for the Community Interest Board Officer position. A Community Interest Stakeholder, is defined as an individual who is a member of or participates in a Community Organization within the boundaries of the neighborhood council.

Download the VNC Map HERE (or put in your address HERE) to find out if you are a VNC Stakeholder.  All voters must verify their Stakeholder status by providing acceptable documentation.
