REQUEST YOUR BALLOT AND VOTE BY MAIL IN 2020
EVERYONE IS DOING IT...

Over 80% of primary voters in 2020 used an absentee ballot. Voting by mail via absentee ballot is one of the safest, securest, and most reliable ways that Americans can vote today. In 2016, over 33 million votes were cast by absentee ballots that were safely mailed in.  Now with concerns about COVID-19, voting in your home and mailing in your ballot is even more important and convenient. Below is some important information that you should know as the November 2020 voting process begins.
