Look before you vote in Malibu

A voter information pamphlet published by the city of Santa Monica and sent to Malibu voters contains incorrect ballot position numbers for school board candidates and Measure ES, a bond measure seeking to fund improvements within the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District.

When marking their ballots, voters should consult only the official ballot materials issued by the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder, which are accurate.

This letter, from Santa Monica City Clerk Sarah Gorman, was sent to affected voters to explain the printing error. Gorman said that city staffers will also be out at polling places in Malibu in case questions arise on Election Day, Tuesday, November 6.
