As many as 1.7 million Angelenos who are registered to vote but did not receive an absentee ballot had not shown up by the time most centers closed on Monday.
Omega Hsu, who lives in Los Feliz, said the first thing she noticed when she went to vote at the local Masonic Lodge was the line. There were about 15 to 20 people ahead of her when she arrived — a stunning backlog, she thought, for 11:30 a.m. on Monday.
“I can see how, if you’re not used to it — especially for older voters — it can be very confusing,” she said. While the vote centers offer more election-related services than the polling places they replaced, there are substantially fewer of them —, compared with 4,698 polling places in the 2016 presidential primary. Election officials promised to post signs at former neighborhood polling sites listing the nearest vote center.
