Oakland's Nov. 5 election: How to register, where to vote, what's on the ballot
Briefly

Elections have evolved from single-day events to an 'election season,' allowing for mail-in ballots and early voting, which enhances participation but delays results.
With 88% of Californians now voting by mail and voting centers opening a week early, the process is more democratic, allowing greater voter flexibility and access.
The significant shift to mail-in voting and early voting means local officials require more time to certify results, changing how we perceive election night.
This upcoming general election on Nov. 5 involves various critical races, from the presidential election to local officials, underscoring the importance of voter participation.
