How to Vote by Vote-by-Mail Ballot
YES. The elections official, by comparing the signature on the vote-by-mail ballot return envelope to the signature on your voter registration card, can determine that you are the authorized voter. This is an important protection for you. Your signature will not allow anyone to determine how you voted.
If you omit any of the required information from your vote-by-mail ballot application, the elections official will send you a ballot, but will also include a notice that the missing information must be provided in order for the ballot be counted.
In order to be counted, an elections official must receive your ballot no later than 8 p.m. on April 2, 2013. You can mail your ballot by June 4, 2016, or drop it off at any polling location in your City on Election Day. Ballots received after the polls close on June 7, 2016 cannot be counted regardless of postmarks. If you return your voted ballot by mail, don’t forget to put the required postage on the envelope. The post office will not deliver it without the required postage.
