Note About Vote By Mail Applications
If you completed the white postcard that was sent by State Elections in January and July, and you checked off "all elections", you are all set for the remainder of the elections for 2024. If you’re voting by mail, your ballot must be postmarked by Nov. 5 in order to be counted. Since ballots can take up to 7 days to be delivered by the U.S. Postal Service, it is recommended you mail your ballot at least one week before Election Day.
