Labor Day is traditionally the day San Luis Obispo County Democrats host their Annual Labor Day Barbecue at a local park in the county. Their BBQ was canceled this year because of the pandemic. Yesterday, Democrats held a drive-through BBQ at the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (I.B.E.W.) union headquarters in San Luis Obispo.
Meanwhile, Republicans were busy in the north county. At the Republican headquarters in Atascadero, manager Cheryl Berbach said they registered voters and volunteers put up signs around the north county. Among those putting up the signs, Noah Bilyeu, a recent graduate from University of Nevada, Reno said Labor Day was a hot day to work outdoors. Meanwhile, the effort continues to gather signatures for the recall of Governor Gavin Newsom. The leaders in that recall say they’re on track to qualify the measure for the ballot, but not in time for the General Election in November.
San Luis Obispo County elections office identified north county ballot drop box locations. In Paso Robles, you can drop off your ballot at the Mid-state Fairgrounds, the Paso Robles Senior Center on Scott Street, Templeton’s SLO County Sheriff Substation, Heritage Ranch Community Service District at the lake.
