What if I request a ballot, but want to vote in person? (click here to learn more)
You must bring the envelope and ballot you were mailed to your polling location and inform an election judge of your decision. Your VBM Ballot will then be destroyed so you can vote in person.
If I mail in an application for voter registration, can I Vote By Mail? (click here to learn more)
Yes, however you must submit the voter registration application along with the required identification. (copy of current and valid photo identification or copy of current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck, or other government document that shows the name and address of the voter). If you do not provide the required identification with your mailed in application for voter registration, then you will be required to provide the proper identification the first time you vote at a polling place.
