Application for Voter Registration Information

California Election Code requires voter registration information to be provided for elections, scholarly, or governmental purposes. There is an application required for this information.

What Information is Available in a Voter File?

Voter registration information is available to any candidate for federal, state, or local office, to any committee for or against any initiative or referendum measure for which legal publication is made, and to any person for election, scholarly, journalistic, or political purposes, or for governmental purposes, as determined by the Secretary of State. To receive this information, you must fill out a Voter Information Data Request Form with a copy of your driver's license or state-issued identification card and pay the associated fees for voter files. A voter file may contain some or all of the following information:

  • First name / last name
  • Birthdate and birthplace
  • Permanent Vote by Mail voter status
  • Date last voted
  • Residence and mailing address
  • Political Party
  • Precinct number /group
  • Date of registration
  • Voting history for countywide elections from the last 5 statewide elections
  • Email address (if provided by the voter)
  • Telephone number (if provided by the voter)

 

Some data sets available at the Yolo County Elections Office are not confidential and are available to the public. Most of that data is available on our website but you must contact us for maps, shapefiles, precinct-district relationship files, home precinct-to-consolidated precinct reports, and other dynamic but non-confidential files.  If you wish to receive such public data, please complete the Non-Confidential Data Request Form. A copy of your driver's license or state-issued identification card is not required; however, applicable fees must be paid when submitting the request.
