Cedar Glen, California Public Records

The deadline to register is 15 days before Election Day, though California also offers conditional voter registration and same-day registration at vote centers and county elections offices through Election Day. Voters must be U.S. Citizens, California residents, at least 18 years old by Election Day, and not currently serving a state or federal prison term for a felony conviction. A California driver's license or ID number is required for online registration. As an unincorporated community, Cedar Glen does not hold municipal elections for mayor or city council. Residents vote in San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors elections - the area is in the 3rd Supervisorial District - as well as state and federal races. Polling place and vote center information is available through the County Registrar of Voters website at www.sbcountyelections.com/polling-places, where voters can enter their address to find their assigned location. California offers vote-by-mail ballots to all registered voters, and residents can request a mail ballot through the Registrar of Voters website or by contacting the office directly. Mail ballots are automatically sent to voters who have requested permanent vote-by-mail status. In the November 2024 presidential election, San Bernardino County reported approximately 58% voter turnout among registered voters, with total votes cast exceeding 500,000 countywide. On November 3, 2026, California voters will decide multiple statewide and local races. While the U.S. Senate seat held by Alex Padilla will not be up for election in 2026 (his term expires in 2028), voters will elect the Governor of California (Gavin Newsom's term expires in 2027, so this race is confirmed for 2026), Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of State, Attorney General, Controller, Treasurer, Insurance Commissioner, Superintendent of Public Instruction, and Board of Equalization members. California State Senate and Assembly seats representing the area will also be on the ballot, as will San Bernardino County offices including the Board of Supervisors, Sheriff-Coroner, District Attorney, Assessor-Recorder-Clerk, Auditor-Controller/Treasurer/Tax Collector, and Superior Court judges. Local special district boards governing fire protection, water, and other services may also appear on the ballot. Public election records in California include voter registration files (available for purchase by qualified requesters under California Elections Code), campaign finance disclosure reports accessible through the California Fair Political Practices Commission at www.fppc.ca.gov and the Secretary of State's Cal-Access database at https://cal-access.sos.ca.gov, candidate statements and filings available through the County Registrar, and precinct-level election results posted at www.sbcountyelections.com after each election. California's vote-by-mail system allows any registered voter to request an absentee ballot without providing a reason; ballots are mailed approximately 29 days before the election and must be postmarked by Election Day and received within seven days to be counted.
