Tips for Absentee Voters

• Apply early! Voters can request an Absentee Ballot Application as early as 12 months before an election. Please allow enough time for your application to be processed and your ballot to be mailed to you. Your voted ballot must be received by your Electoral Board in time to be counted on Election Day.
• Please fill out the form completely. Omissions on your form can jeopardize your ability to vote.
