Tuesday is Election Day. Don't Forget to Vote!

Tuesday, June 2nd is Election Day! In this Primary Election, California voters will choose their preferred candidates for statewide offices — including Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of State, Controller, and Attorney General. Voters will also select local representatives for U.S. Congress, State Assembly, County Supervisor, County Superintendent of Schools, and more. The top two vote-getters in each race will move on to the November General Election.

If you haven't filled out your vote-by-mail ballot and sent it in, do it TODAY!

You can mail your completed ballot through the U.S. Postal Service (no stamp is required). Your ballot must be mailed BEFORE the last pickup of the day so that it is postmarked by Tuesday, June 2nd.

You can also drop your completed ballot off at any of the Irvine Official Ballot Drop Box locations. For a list of Ballot Drop Box locations in Irvine, click here: https://webadmin.cityofirvine.org/civica/filebank/blobdload.asp?BlobID=36945

If you are using an Official Ballot Drop Box, your ballot must be placed in the Ballot Drop Box BEFORE 8pm on Tuesday, June 2nd.

For those of you who prefer voting in-person, that option is available through any of the 14 Vote Centers in town that are open on Monday (June 1st) from 10am until 6pm. On Election Day (Tuesday, June 2nd), Vote Centers will be open from 7am until 8pm.

The Trail of Tears represents ethnic cleansing and forced relocations for many Native American nations after the Indian Removal Act was enacted in 1830. During this time, nearly 60,000 people were displaced until 1850. Members of Five Tribes, including Cherokee, Seminole, Muscogee, Choctaw, and Chickasaw, were removed from their homes and moved to a new Indian territory after the discovery of gold near their ancestral land.

Eid al-Adha, known as the “Festival of Sacrifice,” is one of the two major Islamic holidays celebrated by Muslims worldwide. It commemorates the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham), peace be upon him, to sacrifice his son Ismail as an act of obedience to God, a test of faith that was halted when God intervened and provided a ram to sacrifice in his place.

The holiday falls on the 10th day of Dhul Hijjah, the last month of the Islamic lunar calendar, and coincides with the annual Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca.

Eid Mubarak to all celebrating!

Eid al-Adha, also known as the Festival of Sacrifice, is an important religious holiday celebrated by Muslims worldwide. It commemorates the willingness of the Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to Allah (God).

Eid al-Adha falls on the 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah, the last month of the Islamic lunar calendar, and lasts for four days.

Eid al-Adha is a significant occasion in the Islamic calendar, representing devotion, faith, and sacrifice. It encourages Muslims to reflect on the values of selflessness, obedience, and compassion. The celebration of Eid al-Adha serves as a reminder of the importance of devotion to Allah and caring for others in the community.
