ABSENTEE / MAIL BALLOT
Your ballot. Your timeline. Your power.
Whether you're traveling, have a disability, or simply prefer voting from home — mail-in voting is your right in most states. Request your ballot through Vote.org before your state's deadline.
Request early — mail takes time
Absentee ballot request deadlines vary widely by state — some require 2+ weeks of lead time. Once your ballot arrives, complete it and return it promptly. Many states require it to arrive by Election Day, not just be postmarked.
This opens Vote.org's absentee ballot request tool. Rules and eligibility vary by state. TAL captures your intent; you self-confirm when you return. Vote.org · Last verified: June 2026
