WHAT ARE THE STEPS I NEED TO TAKE TO VOTE?


If your last U.S. residence was in Orange County, contact our office and we will send you a Federal Post Card Application (FPCA), or go to www.fvap.gov. The FPCA serves as a registration form and a vote-by-mail application. It can be used by citizens of all U.S. states and territories. You must fill out the form completely and sign and date the application for it to be processed. For more information, call the Orange County Registrar of Voters Office at (714) 567-7560.
