Time to request your absentee ballot


If you are a registered voter and would like an absentee ballot for the March 14 election, now is the time to request your ballot.

It's fast and easy! Just visit this link to submit your 2023 request. Or, you may use the attached request form.

Your absentee ballot will be mailed to you starting the week of Feb. 13. That means you can vote on our two school funding levies less than two weeks from today!

The final day to request an absentee ballot for the upcoming school levy election is March 3. Your request must be received by the county elections office by 5 p.m. that day.

Don't forget: A new absentee ballot request must be made each calendar year. If you voted by absentee ballot last year, you still need to make a new request to vote by absentee ballot this year.
