Voting by Early Mail or Absentee Ballot

Polls will be open on November 5th. Any registered voter in New York may apply for an Early Mail ballot. Voters may also apply for an Absentee Ballot if they qualify, such as being unable to appear at the polls due to a disability.

1. Request Your Early Mail or Absentee Ballot

You can also mail an Early Mail ballot application that you can download and print here, as well as an Absentee Ballot application that you can download and print here. With either option, you must do so by October 26.

If you prefer to fill out a paper application, you should mail the completed application to your County Board of Elections.
