The Wisconsin Supreme Court determined last Friday that drop boxes may be used for the February 15th election, and voters may continue the practice of asking a person of their choice to mail or return their completed absentee ballot. The Court will decide later about the use of these practices for ballot return in future elections.
|
- Voters who wish to vote absentee should request, complete and return their ballot as soon as possible. Registered voters may request absentee ballots at MyVote Wisconsin: https://myvote.wi.gov/
- Our 2022 Wisconsin Spring Elections Timeline provides important dates and deadlines for the Spring elections.
- If a voter always needs to vote absentee due to disability, age, illness, or infirmity, they may certify that they are an indefinitely confined voter on their absentee ballot request. They will have their ballot mailed to them for each election until they don’t return a ballot. Note: Any voter may request absentee ballots for the year.
