Absentee Voting:
Voters who are over 65 years of age, permanently or temporarily disabled, or temporarily residing outside the county are eligible to cast an absentee ballot via mail or in person. Other voters who will be outside the county on election day or meet other certain criteria may cast an absentee ballot in person in the clerk's office. Absentees are available 45 days prior to an election, and the deadline for casting those ballots will be noon on the Saturday immediately preceding the Election Day.
Special accommodations are made for US citizens living temporarily abroad and active duty military and their spouse. These voters may vote by several different means, including by email or online. Voters who meet these requirements are encouraged to submit a Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) as soon as possible. Each FPCA will be active for all elections in the calendar year in which it is received.
Absentee ballots are now a final vote. Once an absentee ballot has been issued to a voter, they will be unable to vote a regular ballot at the polling place. However, these voters will be allowed to cast an affidavit ballot instead. Should there be a problem with the absentee ballot which causes it to be rejected, the affidavit ballot will be examined by the resolution board to determine if it should be counted.
