If you’ve been meaning to cast your ballot in the June 2nd Gubernatorial Primary, now’s the perfect time to make a plan. According to *Vida Newspaper*, Ventura County vote centers opened last Saturday, May 23, and there are 11 locations—including the Elections Office at the Government Center—available every day through Election Day. For us here in Oxnard, that means no more scrambling to find your polling place; you can vote at any center countywide, which is a real game-changer for busy weekdays.
What I love about this setup is how it takes the pressure off. Whether you’re grabbing coffee on A Street or running errands near the Collection, you can swing by a center at your own pace. And with 42 more centers opening soon, there’s really no excuse to sit this one out. Our local elections shape everything from school funding to pothole repairs, so every voice matters. Grab a friend, make it a coffee run, and let’s show up for Oxnard.

OxnardWoman stabbed, another arrested
A quiet Sunday evening in Oxnard turned alarming last week when police responded to a stabbing on the 1700 block of Oneida Place. Officers arrived around 9:30 p.m. to find a 40-year-old woman suffering from multiple stab wounds and provided immediate first aid before she was taken for medical care. A suspect was arrested at the scene, though details about the circumstances remain limited. Incidents like this remind us that even in our close-knit neighborhoods, violence can surface unexpectedly. Our thoughts are with the victim and her loved ones as she recovers. For more details, check the initial report from our friends at Vida Newspaper.

OxnardVentura Police Arrest Armed Suspect During Illegal Dumping Enforcement Operation
If you’ve noticed more patrols along the river bottom near Harbor Boulevard, there’s a reason. On June 30, Ventura Police Patrol Task Force officers arrested Brad Greene during an illegal dumping and trespassing enforcement operation in the 3700 block. The operation is part of an ongoing effort to crack down on illegal dumping that has plagued this area — which, as many Oxnard residents know, can lead to environmental hazards and safety concerns for our whole region. Vida Newspaper first reported the arrest, noting that the suspect was found to be armed during the enforcement. While the incident happened just over the Ventura line, it’s a reminder that these enforcement actions affect our shared waterways and open spaces. Keeping the river bottom clean isn’t just a Ventura issue — it’s a Central Coast priority.
