Sierra County Leads the Way!
Small county. Big commitment to democracy.
When it comes to making our voices heard, Sierra County knows how to show up!
Early ballots returned by November 1
48.5%
27.5%
By November 1, 48.5% of Sierra County’s registered voters had already returned their ballots, compared with just 27.5% statewide. That put our little corner of the Sierra Nevada at the top of California’s 58 counties for early ballot returns.
We’re a small, rural county, but our dedication to participating in democracy is anything but small. From the mountains to the valleys, Sierra County voters are showing that community involvement doesn’t depend on population size.
That’s something every Sierra County voter can be proud of.
These figures reflect early ballot returns through November 1, 2026, not final election turnout. Sierra County’s preliminary November 3 report recorded 1,282 processed ballots (59.24% of registered voters), and counting continues.
Explore how Sierra County’s candidate and proposition votes compare with statewide and district results, and read what the measures could mean next.
