Vote-by-mail allows any registered voter to cast their ballot by mail rather than voting in person during early voting or on Election Day. Requests for a vote-by-mail ballot must be renewed after each general election.

Voters are reminded that vote-by-mail ballots cannot be forwarded by the U.S. Postal Service. If a ballot is returned undeliverable, it cancels the voter’s request on file. Voters should update their mailing address with the Supervisor of Elections if they plan to be away or have moved.

Ballots must be received by the Supervisor of Elections Office by 7:00 p.m. on Election Day, November 5.

Ballots can also be dropped off at early voting sites during voting hours or at the Elections Office at 105 E. Monroe Street.
