The office has received a high volume of calls asking where the ballots are. To date, Wright County has received more than 13,000 absentee ballot requests and staff in the Auditor/Treasurer’s Office will be assigned to get the ballots out as quickly as possible to those who have already had their applications approved.

Due to the volume of absentee ballots, the Elections Division asks that residents be patient. The ballots will be on the way starting next week.
