No immediate public statement from the San Diego County Registrar of Voters specifically addressing the Voltaire Street overflow, the ballots on the ground, the unmarked minivan, or the alleged request to delete video was available at the time of publication.

California law requires that ballots placed in official drop boxes by the close of polls be counted, provided they are properly sealed and signed.

Voters who used the Voltaire Street box or nearby locations can track their mail ballot status through the California Secretary of State’s online tracking tool once results processing begins.
