Is there authority in the California statutes or California Constitution for such an all mail voting approach? I’ve lived here all my life and do not remember any statewide (or for that matter any local) election that used mail only voting. But my memory is not as good as it once was…

Yamada sponsored AB 1681 in the last CA Assembly session that was
eventually signed into law that authorized all-mail special election
(as long as not for statewide or federal office) pilots in Yolo
County, CA:
