If you live in California and you're eligible to vote, today is your last day to register to vote in the Nov. 8 election. Here’s how to do it:
To check the status of your voter registration, go here.
Not sure which county you live in? Enter your ZIP at the U.S. Census website.

Once you register, you will have the opportunity to vote "yes" or "no" on 17 statewide ballot propositions, and many Californians will have the opportunity to vote on local initiatives.
For national elections, California has been a solidly blue Democratic state, and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is projected to win it.

In some California districts, no Republicans besides presidential candidate Donald Trump will appear on the ballot.
Along with multiple local government elections down ballot, voters in many California congressional districts will get the opportunity to pick their congressional representatives. Here are the ones we're watching.
