Marin County Votes by Mail | San Francisco News

Marin County is dominating voter turnout by mail, smashing records with 60.9% participation in the June primary — and 93% of those votes came by mail, making it the Bay Area’s and California’s mail-voting leader.

Even as some, like Mary Currie, worry about declining civic involvement, the ballot remains a vital voice for change.
