Notes:
(1) - Dates vary by locality. Contact your Local Election Office for more information.
(2) - All mail election. This state conducts elections entirely by mail. All registered voters should automatically receive a mail-in ballot.
(3) - Use of terms Early Voting and In-person Absentee Voting in this state are sometimes interchangeable. If you have questions, pleas contact your Local Election Office for more information.
Definitions:
EARLY VOTING (EV): Early voting usually refers to voting that takes place at specially designated early voting sites.
IN-PERSON ABSENTEE VOTING (IPA): In-person absentee voting usually refers to going through the absentee balloting process in-person at a local election office.
While these two terms are often used interchangeably to refer to any voting done in-person before election day - most states only use one or the other - some states use both and they're distinguished along the lines described above.
