Important Message Regarding 2025 LACERS Board Election

We extend our deepest sympathies and solidarity to all those affected by the unprecedented wildfires impacting the City and County of Los Angeles. We recognize the challenges you may be facing and want to ensure that you are still able to participate in the 2025 Election for the LACERS Retired Member of the Board, even if your personal residence has been impacted.

Unfortunately, the Los Angeles Administrative Code does not provide for postponement of elections – even during emergencies/natural disasters. Accordingly, the Office of the City Clerk – Election Division is committed to making every effort to issue replacement ballots to voters as quickly as possible.

Beginning Wednesday, March 19, 2025, if you require a replacement ballot, you may contact the Office of the City Clerk – Election Division through any of the following methods:

• Phone: (213) 978-0444

• Email: Clerk.ElectionAdmin@lacity.org

• In-Person: 555 Ramirez St., Space 300, Los Angeles, CA 90012,
  Hours: Monday – Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. (Pacific Time)

The Election Division will provide you with an Affidavit of Loss/Non-Receipt to complete. Once the Election Division receives the completed Affidavit back – by email, mail, or in-person – they will confirm your eligibility to participate, and you will be issued a replacement ballot. Your replacement ballot can be picked up in-person from the Election Division or mailed to you via U.S. Postal Service to an alternate address. You will also receive a Business Reply Envelope, and an Identification Envelope.

Place the completed Identification Envelope with the voted ballot enclosed into the Business Reply Envelope and deposit in any U.S. Postal Service mailbox. Alternatively, you can provide Election Division the ballot in-person by use of the drop box or mail slot at their office. All ballots must be received by the Election Division no later than 5:00 p.m. on Friday, April 11, 2025.

LACERS remains committed to supporting you during this difficult time and ensuring your voice is heard in this important election.
