 Leadership, Not Catch Up, Needed in California Secretary of State Office - California Progress Report
The fact that many voters choosing to vote by the increasingly popular method of absentee ballot may not be aware of this change is but one example of improvements needed in the Secretary of State's office to make sure all who try to vote are able to have their votes count.

The Secretary of State should be anticipating these types of problems and solving them before they become an issue, instead of laying it all at the feet of the country registrars of voters and forcing them to scramble for a solution less than a month before the election.
