Each election cycle, California renews its invitation to civic life — and this week, that invitation arrives in the mailbox. Ahead of the June 2 primary, counties across the state have begun sending ballots to every registered voter, opening a weeks-long window for participation that reflects a deliberate effort to lower the barriers between citizen and ballot. The process is not a single moment but a sustained opportunity, bounded by a few firm deadlines that ask only that voters pay attention.
