Be Election Ready!
-
Check your voter registration. Make sure your address is current, especially if you have moved in the last year or have not voted recently. All active registered voters get a ballot in the mail. For November elections, ballots are mailed the second week of October.
-
Register for Ballot Trax to track your mail ballot. Sign up for Ballot Trax to receive messages by email, text, or phone when your mail ballot has been printed, mailed, and then received back by the County during election periods.
-
Vote early. Ballots are generally mailed the second week of October. Voting early helps reduce campaign phone calls and helps the county process ballots throughout the election period rather than on just one night. There are many ways to return your ballot, including via US mail (make sure to affix postage!), at a local dropbox, or at the drive-by ballot drop-off the day of the election. Check the light blue instructions insert sheet with your ballot for all options.
