It’s the last day for Californians to register to vote before the June primary.
California Secretary of State Alex Padilla says, since January 1, nearly a million people have either registered or updated their information.
Elections officials predict interest will remain high, even though the state will no longer decide the Republican presidential nominee.
"I still expect a tremendous turnout above and beyond what may be typical for even a presidential election cycle," Padilla says.
Padilla credits Facebook with helping create
a spike in registration last week.
Voters must register before midnight Monday to cast a ballot in the primary. They can register in-person at the DMV or county elections offices, online at
registertovote.ca.gov, or by mail.
Voters who have listed No Party Preference, but who want to cast vote-by-mail ballots in the Democratic primary, must request them from their county elections offices by May 30.
