ABSENTEE VOTING
Absentee ballots are available for all elections – Town, State, Federal and Primaries. They are generally available at the Town Clerk’s Office at least three weeks prior to an election.
ELIGIBILITY
There are specific reasons for requesting an absentee ballot, which include the following:
being absent from the Town during polling hours;
a physical disability which would prevent a person from going to the polls; or
religious beliefs
APPLICATION
The application for an Absentee Ballot must be signed under the “penalty of perjury” by the applicant or a family member requesting one on behalf of the voter.
Applications for absentee ballots must be received by the Town Clerk’s Office by 12:00 noon on the day prior to an election.
