Absentee Voting & *NEW* Ongoing Absentee Voting

*New* Ongoing Absentee Voting: Beginning February 1, 2024, voters who are or will be at least 65 years of age by the next election or who self identify as a voter with a disability (or who meet both conditions) can submit a written application to request ongoing   absentee voter status. This means that after submitting the application, the voter does not need to submit an  application for each election; instead the voter will automatically receive an absentee ballot for each ensuing statewide election, municipal election and any other election for which the voter is entitled to vote.

The law further provides that the voter’s ongoing absentee voter status may only be terminated by the Clerk or the Secretary of State upon:

A voter applying for this status must do so in writing using the form designed by the Secretary of State and must originally sign the application and submit it to the Municipal Clerk.
