Voting Centers Planned At Santa Monica Schools

SANTA MONICA, CA — The Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District, in partnership with the Los Angeles County Registrar’s office, will host eight voting sites at Santa Monica and Malibu schools in October for early voting this month and Nov. 3 for Election Day.

Voting begins either Oct. 24 or Oct. 30 and sites will be open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. except on Election Day when they will open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The district has set up cleaning protocols for the sites that follow coronavirus health guidelines, district Superintendent Dr. Ben Drati said. Lines will be monitored by county personnel when the sites are open. District employees will be on-site as necessary, he added.

“We teach our students that voting is an honor and a duty that shouldn’t be taken for granted, and we are happy to be able to help provide voters convenient locations amid the global pandemic,” Drati said.
