Your Vote. Your Power!

In California, Latinas are a driving force, making up about 20% of the state’s population and nearly 40% of all women.

Rooted in community and care, Latinas bring lived experience and deep connections to their families and neighborhoods. That perspective fuels our commitment to show up, to vote, to organize, and to lead.

While overall voter turnout dipped in 2024, Latinas continue to play a pivotal role in shaping California’s future. Our growing electorate and collective voice remain central to advancing representation and opportunity for all.

This resource hub offers key deadlines, tools, and information to help you stay informed and activate your civic power in 2025 and beyond.
