Sierra County Leads California in Early Voter Participation!
Small county. Statewide standout.
Of California’s 58 counties, Sierra County ranked #1 for the share of registered voters returning ballots ahead of Election Day. Our mountain communities may be small, but Sierra County voters made a big statement about the importance of showing up.

Of 2,164 registered Sierra County voters
That early enthusiasm carried into the county’s latest report. As of November 4 at 3:38 p.m., 1,475 ballots had been processed—68.16% of registered voters—and all 19 Sierra County precincts were reporting. The count is still unofficial, and additional eligible ballots may be counted.
This is a moment for all of Sierra County to celebrate. Whatever our political differences, taking part in an election is one way we help shape the future of the communities we share. Thank you to the voters, election workers, and neighbors who make that participation possible.
A small county can set a big example.
