What is a Mail-In Ballot?

A mail in ballot or the "vote by mail" system, specifically is an election ballot requested through your local election office. Prior to election day, which gives voters an "election period" to cast in their vote.   Which can be submitted back to your local election office.

What is the difference between Voting Centers and Ballot Drop Boxes? 

​

Voting Centers are an alternative to traditional, neighborhood-based precincts (voting districts).

Ballot Drop Boxes provide a secure and convenient means for voters to return their mail-in ballot directly to the voting commission.
