And sometimes, even ballots mailed through USPS on time don’t make it to the county elections office by that “one week after Election Day” deadline to be counted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While USPS is not reporting any particular delays, the agency said it “anticipates similar service performance as demonstrated in the 2020 general election,” in which 99.89% of ballots mailed from voters nationwide to election officials were delivered within a week. This, of course, means that 0.11% nationwide — around 715,000 ballots — were \u003cem>not \u003c/em>successfully delivered to county elections offices in time to be counted, according to \u003ca href=\"https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2020/11/10/most-mail-and-provisional-ballots-got-counted-in-past-u-s-elections-but-many-did-not/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the number of overall ballots cast that year\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, some people who mail their ballot on Election Day before 8 p.m. may \u003ci>think \u003c/i>they’ve successfully gotten it in on time but have accidentally placed it in a USPS collection box that’s past its last collection for the day — which in many places is 5 p.m. or earlier.

If you’re issued a new ballot when you vote in person, any ballot you left at home will be canceled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Provisional votes are subject to extra checks — confirming that you’re actually registered to vote in California or that you didn’t already complete and mail your ballot — and this extra layer of confirmation takes time.

It should also show whether your ballot was mailed out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re correctly registered to the right address, your county elections office won’t mail you a ballot six days or less before Election Day (because it can’t be sure the ballot will reach you in time.)

What do I do?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to correcting a mistake on your ballot in California — how a voter corrects a mistake is up to your county, and their advice for how to fix a mistake on your ballot is almost certainly printed on the ballot itself.

"content": "\u003cp>We’re almost there, folks. Two years of nonstop campaigning for the White House will finally come to a close this Tuesday, Nov. 5, on \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12008419/ballot-drop-off-location-near-me-early-voting-site-election-2024\">Election Day\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2023, the Pew Research Center found that \u003ca href=\"https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2023/09/19/americans-dismal-views-of-the-nations-politics/\">65% of Americans say they always or often feel “exhausted” when thinking about politics\u003c/a>. And that was before all the dramatic twists and turns of 2024 that have given us the present circumstances: Vice President Kamala Harris and former president Donald Trump \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/25/us/politics/poll-harris-trump-times-siena.html\">deadlocked in the polls of every single swing state\u003c/a>, leaving even the most experienced political analysts with little clue of who will be the next president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But besides election exhaustion, there are other feelings felt across the political spectrum, from anxiety and frustration to straight-up fear. Among many undocumented and mixed-status immigrant families, for example, there’s a lot of nervousness about Trump enacting what he calls “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtpORNvI26w\">the largest deportation program in American history\u003c/a>.” After the former president survived a public assassination attempt in July at a Pennsylvania campaign rally, a large number of his most ardent supporters \u003ca href=\"https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/after-the-assassination-attempt-against-trump-anger-and-anxiety-loom-over-the-republican-convention\">fear that Trump could be targeted again\u003c/a>. And as \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12011576/what-do-young-voters-care-about-most-in-this-presidential-election\">millions of Gen Z Americans prepare to cast their votes for the first time\u003c/a>, many have shared \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13967133/charli-xcx-fans-election-2024-harris-trump\">their frustration that neither candidate may do enough to protect the lives of Palestinians in Gaza\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re feeling these big emotions, you’re not alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Let’s normalize [feeling] anxious because it is a very high-stakes election,” said Kelli McLean, a California marriage and family therapist who works on issues relating to trauma, anxiety and depression with her clients. “This is anxiety-provoking.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of times when we’re feeling a certain type of way about something, it comes out in other ways we don’t expect,” said Ioanna Angelakis, a licensed marriage and family therapist based in San Francisco. “So it’s really important to be honest and truthful with yourself and others about what’s going on and to formulate a plan, so you have something to fall back on — should the worst thing happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keep reading for expert advice on the things you can do before, on and after Nov. 5 to help manage anxiety about the 2024 election.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Try to consume less election news\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>When something is very important to us, it’s normal for us to keep checking on it as much as we can. In a presidential election as unpredictable as this one, we may have the TV on all the time or be constantly checking social media to see if there’s any tiny piece of new information that will give us hope that things will “go our way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But seeking out this feeling of control — in a situation that frankly cannot be controlled by any one single individual — can lead to us feeling even more helpless, McClean said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a direct correlation between how much anxiety people are feeling to what they’re watching,” she said. “The election is everywhere, and people are inundating themselves with this. It’s information overload.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"2024 Bay Area Voter Guide\" link1='https://www.kqed.org/voterguide/bayarea,Learn about every single race and measure across the nine Bay Area counties' hero=https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/80/2024/02/Aside-Bay-Area-Voter-Guide-2024-Primary-Election-1200x1200-1.png]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One recommendation McLean has been sharing with her clients is to stay away from social media as much as they can — or as much as they can bear — for the next few days. “They’re limiting their exposure to these 24-hour news cycles, which can be anxiety-provoking for people,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Remember, polls aren’t crystal balls\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/lowdown/3825/what-is-the-electoral-college-and-is-it-time-to-get-rid-of-it\">seven swing states that are key to winning the election\u003c/a>, polls have switched back and forth between a Trump lead and a Harris lead for weeks now. While you may look for any sliver of hope in new polls, keep in mind that most recent polls \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbsnews.com/news/harris-trump-poll-pennsylvania-29-10-2024/\">have only changed by 1 or 2 percentage points\u003c/a>, which is within a poll’s margin of error — the window of uncertainty your poll results may have. For example, in an \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-harris-poll-gender-gap/\">Oct. 28 CBS News/YouGov poll of registered voters in Pennsylvania\u003c/a>, Harris and Trump are tied 49%–49%, but the margin of error is 2.6%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Polls are, after all, surveys of smaller groups meant to reflect a larger population. While Harris and Trump are tied among the smaller group surveyed, that doesn’t mean that in all of Pennsylvania, there’s a perfect tie among those who plan to vote for Harris and Trump. The margin of error tells us that the candidates’ numbers could actually be a little higher or a little lower — within that 2.6% range.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of this goes to say that it’s probably a good idea to limit how much we look at polls. Remember: the 2016 and 2020 elections delivered many electoral surprises that polls didn’t predict. Since then, \u003ca href=\"https://www.vox.com/2024-elections/370649/trust-polls-2016-2020-election-2024-pollster-polling-miss\">pollsters have refined their methods\u003c/a> — but even they say that polls are not “perfectly predictive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why therapists like Angelakis are reminding their clients to accept the uncertainty in this major event and work from there. “The future is unpredictable and unknown — it’s a mystery,” she said. “All we can do is just stay grounded.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Enjoy the weekend before Election Day as much as you can\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Yes, the first Tuesday of November could be historic for the country. But let’s not forget that the first \u003cem>weekend\u003c/em> of November is quite special in its own right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diwali, the Hindu festival that celebrates light triumphing over darkness, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/entertainment/article/diwali-deepavali-hindu-festival-19854481.php\">begins this year in the early hours of Thursday, Oct. 31\u003c/a>, and lasts until the next morning.

Whether they share this directly with you or not, they may be absorbing the anxiety of others around them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Kids are the spokespeople of their parents and their family’s fears,” Angelakis said. “When your child is acting out, or when your child is isolating, these are signs that your child is worried about something.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is when it’s very important to have \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11764070/how-to-talk-with-kids-after-a-traumatic-event\">age-appropriate conversations about what’s happening out in the world\u003c/a>, McLean said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11764070]“If you’re dealing with a small child, know that a lot of this is too much for them to fully take in, and it can be traumatizing,” she said. “You can explain to them the process without going into scary details: ‘Two people are competing and they have different beliefs. People can get very mad and nervous about it. But you’re still going to be safe in this home with your parents.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t want to lie to them or over-promise, but just not expose them to things that are not appropriate on the news or social media,” McLean said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/59143/war-crisis-tragedy-how-to-talk-with-kids-when-the-news-is-scary\">\u003cem>Read KQED’s bilingual guide on how to talk to kids during difficult or scary major moments.\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Watch your anxiety levels on Election Day itself …\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>It’s Nov. 5. You — or those around — have already voted. And results of the presidential election start coming in at 5 p.m. Pacific Time, when the polls close on the East Coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Every major TV network will have nonstop coverage of the results throughout the night, and it’s very likely that most restaurants, bars and community spaces with a television will be showing this coverage.

Two years of nonstop campaigning for the White House will finally come to a close this Tuesday, Nov. 5, on \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12008419/ballot-drop-off-location-near-me-early-voting-site-election-2024\">Election Day\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2023, the Pew Research Center found that \u003ca href=\"https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2023/09/19/americans-dismal-views-of-the-nations-politics/\">65% of Americans say they always or often feel “exhausted” when thinking about politics\u003c/a>. And that was before all the dramatic twists and turns of 2024 that have given us the present circumstances: Vice President Kamala Harris and former president Donald Trump \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/25/us/politics/poll-harris-trump-times-siena.html\">deadlocked in the polls of every single swing state\u003c/a>, leaving even the most experienced political analysts with little clue of who will be the next president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But besides election exhaustion, there are other feelings felt across the political spectrum, from anxiety and frustration to straight-up fear. Among many undocumented and mixed-status immigrant families, for example, there’s a lot of nervousness about Trump enacting what he calls “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtpORNvI26w\">the largest deportation program in American history\u003c/a>.” After the former president survived a public assassination attempt in July at a Pennsylvania campaign rally, a large number of his most ardent supporters \u003ca href=\"https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/after-the-assassination-attempt-against-trump-anger-and-anxiety-loom-over-the-republican-convention\">fear that Trump could be targeted again\u003c/a>. And as \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12011576/what-do-young-voters-care-about-most-in-this-presidential-election\">millions of Gen Z Americans prepare to cast their votes for the first time\u003c/a>, many have shared \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13967133/charli-xcx-fans-election-2024-harris-trump\">their frustration that neither candidate may do enough to protect the lives of Palestinians in Gaza\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re feeling these big emotions, you’re not alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In a presidential election as unpredictable as this one, we may have the TV on all the time or be constantly checking social media to see if there’s any tiny piece of new information that will give us hope that things will “go our way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But seeking out this feeling of control — in a situation that frankly cannot be controlled by any one single individual — can lead to us feeling even more helpless, McClean said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a direct correlation between how much anxiety people are feeling to what they’re watching,” she said. “The election is everywhere, and people are inundating themselves with this. It’s information overload.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

While you may look for any sliver of hope in new polls, keep in mind that most recent polls \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbsnews.com/news/harris-trump-poll-pennsylvania-29-10-2024/\">have only changed by 1 or 2 percentage points\u003c/a>, which is within a poll’s margin of error — the window of uncertainty your poll results may have. For example, in an \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-harris-poll-gender-gap/\">Oct. 28 CBS News/YouGov poll of registered voters in Pennsylvania\u003c/a>, Harris and Trump are tied 49%–49%, but the margin of error is 2.6%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Polls are, after all, surveys of smaller groups meant to reflect a larger population. While Harris and Trump are tied among the smaller group surveyed, that doesn’t mean that in all of Pennsylvania, there’s a perfect tie among those who plan to vote for Harris and Trump. The margin of error tells us that the candidates’ numbers could actually be a little higher or a little lower — within that 2.6% range.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of this goes to say that it’s probably a good idea to limit how much we look at polls. Remember: the 2016 and 2020 elections delivered many electoral surprises that polls didn’t predict. Since then, \u003ca href=\"https://www.vox.com/2024-elections/370649/trust-polls-2016-2020-election-2024-pollster-polling-miss\">pollsters have refined their methods\u003c/a> — but even they say that polls are not “perfectly predictive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why therapists like Angelakis are reminding their clients to accept the uncertainty in this major event and work from there. “The future is unpredictable and unknown — it’s a mystery,” she said. “All we can do is just stay grounded.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Enjoy the weekend before Election Day as much as you can\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Yes, the first Tuesday of November could be historic for the country. But let’s not forget that the first \u003cem>weekend\u003c/em> of November is quite special in its own right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diwali, the Hindu festival that celebrates light triumphing over darkness, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/entertainment/article/diwali-deepavali-hindu-festival-19854481.php\">begins this year in the early hours of Thursday, Oct. 31\u003c/a>, and lasts until the next morning. Halloween is also on Thursday — a perfect excuse for families and friends to get together ahead of the weekend.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
