Registered voters receive a ballot two to three weeks before an election, giving time to research issues or candidates. Voters also receive an official ballot to complete and insert into the security envelope which is placed in the ballot return envelope and signed by the voter. The ballot return envelope can be stamped and mailed or dropped off at any official drop box across the state. Ballots must be received or mailed with a valid post mark by 8 p.m. on Election Day. The Drop Box Locator will be updated 20 days before the next statewide election. For more information about local elections, including drop box locations for your county, contact your County Elections Official.
