Since on line registration has been implemented (Sept 19th) we have received 33,432 on line registrations and 17,064 paper registrations as of Monday night. (Many are duplicates, change of party, change of address, etc.) This is actually a normal pace for a Presidential Election, except for the following paragraph.

We received 8,997 on line registrations the last day by midnight on Monday, Oct. 22. We’ll be busy. While it is easier for us to process on line registrations, the amount of work in sending polling place notifications, and vote-by-mail ballots where requested will be a challenge.

Election Code Sec. 13111. Order of Pres. candidates is by random draw by SOS. That order is for the First Assembly Dist. For the Second Assembly Dist., the top candidate is the second place candidate from the First Assembly Dist, and the top candidate goes to the bottom.

This rotation continues until the 80th Assembly District.

Steve Weir question (if he happens to see this):

What determines the order of the presidential candidates on the ballot. Is it determined randomly?

I noticed the order on my ballot was: Republican, Libertarian, Peace & Freedom, Democratic, Green and American Independent.
