For each election, registered voters have the right to request an absentee ballot, which allows the voter to participate in the election without actually visiting the polling location. To request an absentee ballot, contact the Clerk's office prior to Election Day and an application can be sent to your home.

Polls open at 7:00 a.m. and close at 8:00 p.m. Any qualified voter standing in line at 8:00 p.m. when the polls close will be allowed to vote.
Please note that on Election Days, the longest lines are at 7:00 a.m., lunch hour, and at 5:00 p.m. Your waiting time will be greatly minimized if you visit the polling during "non-peak" hours.
