Domestic Civilian Voters

We are not currently accepting absentee ballot requests from domestic civilian voters. We cannot accept requests until 70 days before an election. The first day to request ballots for the November 4, 2025 city and school election, which is the next election for most voters, is Tuesday, August 26. Requests received before that date will be returned to the voter, as required by law.

You must complete a separate request form for each election in which you want a mailed ballot. You cannot submit an Absentee Ballot Request Form online. Forms may be printed, picked up at our office, or we can mail one to you. Forms must be completed, including signature and date, and returned either through the mail or delivered to our office no later than 5:00 PM 15 days prior to the election.

Anyone may deliver a request form for another voter. More than one voter may return a request form in the same envelope.
