Track Your Mail-in Ballot

For the upcoming midterm elections, I voted by mail. In the state of California, a ballot is mailed to every registered voter a few weeks before the election. While there is an option to vote in person, I prefer to avoid lines and send my ballot via US mail. Because I had previously registered at BallotTrax, I received two email notifications the day after I mailed my ballot. Here’s the first one:

This is a message from the California Secretary of State on behalf of Los Angeles County Registrar of Voters. The US Postal Service has collected your ballot for the upcoming November 8, 2022, General Election and will deliver it to us soon.

Here’s the second one:
