It is important that you know how you can vote for President.  Generally, voters must be registered with a qualified political party to vote in that party’s 2024 Presidential Primary Election.

Therefore, if you are registered with any of the following qualified political parties, you can only vote for that party’s presidential primary candidates:

• American Independent Party
• Democratic Party
• Green Party
• Libertarian Party
• Peace and Freedom Party
• Republican Party

If you are registered with a qualified political party but want to vote in a different political party’s presidential primary, you will need to re-register to vote and generally choose that political party as your party preference.

If you are not registered with a qualified political party but want to vote for President in the primary, the following three qualified political parties have agreed to allow you to vote in their presidential primary contest.  Therefore, you may request one of the following political party ballots:

• American Independent Party
• Democratic Party
• Libertarian Party

If you vote by mail, you may call (909) 387-8300 or (800) 881-VOTE (8683) or visit My Elections Gateway at MEG.rov.sbcounty.gov no later than February 27 to request one of these party ballots.

If you vote in person, you may request this ballot when you check in at an Early Vote site or at your assigned polling place.

The Green, Peace and Freedom, and Republican Parties have chosen to only allow their party members to vote in their presidential primary.  If you are not registered with a qualified political party but prefer to vote for a candidate in either the Green, Peace and Freedom, or Republican Party’s presidential primary, you will need to re-register to vote and choose that political party as your party preference.
