I think it is alphabetical, at least on my mail in ballot it was. Everyone in CA gets a mail in ballot with option to vote in person on Nov 5 (in my county anyway) Red county. I was told if you get a mail in ballot, but decide to vote in person and when you get there to vote and are told you already voted (ie someone turned in a mail ballot in your name) then Call The Sheriff!
