Solis Secures New Pop-Up Vote Centers to Expand Voting Access in Boyle Heights

by ·

BOYLE HEIGHTS, Calif. – Los Angeles County Chair Pro Tem and First District Supervisor Hilda L. Solis issued the following update regarding the absence of Vote Centers in the Boyle Heights community within the City of Los Angeles:

“After learning that Boyle Heights had no designated Vote Centers for the upcoming election, I immediately called on the Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk to take action and ensure residents would have access to in-person voting. I’m grateful that, through this advocacy, we are now able to bring new pop-up Vote Centers to the neighborhood.

Pop-Up Vote Center schedule:

Saturday, Nov. 1 — Pop-up Voting Team at the Día de los Muertos celebration on 1st Street between State Street and Boyle Avenue, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.

Sunday, Nov. 2 and Monday, Nov. 3 — Pop-up Vote Center at Boyle Heights City Hall, 2130 E. 1st Street, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Tuesday, Nov. 4 — Pop-up Vote Center at Boyle Heights Senior Center, 2839 E 3rd Street, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Voting is one of the most powerful ways we shape our collective future. Every community deserves accessible and convenient opportunities to participate in our democracy. I encourage everyone in Boyle Heights and across Los Angeles County to make a plan to vote in the Nov. 4 Statewide Special Election—whether by mailing in their ballot, using an official drop box, or voting in person at any Vote Center.”
