To others that live in CA. Question on how to make sure my vote is PROPERLY counted.

Everyone received a mail in ballot. Surprise to surprise.

My question is, i do not trust the mail in ballot and want to vote in person. Can I still go vote in person at my local polling place? Any other things I am aware of?

Yes, i am totally aware that i need to vote YES to Recall Newsom, then cast my vote for whom I want replace him.

Just want to make sure I do everything correct.

much obliged!
