That’s the way absentee ballots used to work when I was in college. Well before the election, I sent in an application, with affidavit. They sent me back a ballot, which I completed and mailed with another affidavit.
What I have seen reported (not necessarily from CA though) is that non-English-speakers take the written test with the aid of a translation app on their phone. And apparently some agencies will accept fake papers re residency/work permit.
