How Do I Vote Early In Person?

You may vote early in person at your County Auditor’s office before any election.

Absentee Ballot

• You may vote absentee in-person at your county auditor’s office before any election. This is done at your county auditor's office or at a satellite early-voting station. You cannot take the ballot home with you.  
• General and primary election absentee ballots are available no earlier than 20 days before an election. For all other elections, ballots will be available as soon as they are ready, but no earlier than 20 days before the election.
• In-person, absentee voting is not available on election day at the auditor's office unless the polls open at noon. If the polls open at noon, you may cast an absentee ballot at the county auditor's office from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. on election day. 
• Voters who need help marking a ballot may use an accessible ballot marking device available at the county auditor's office.

Satellite Early Voting Stations

Satellite early voting stations are alternative locations for absentee voting.

Just as at the county auditor's office, the absentee ballot must be marked at the satellite station and left with the officials. You cannot take the ballot home with you.

All satellite stations must be accessible to people with disabilities.  

To find out whether a satellite station is planned for an election, contact your county auditor.

Satellite Station Petition

You may request a satellite station by filing a petition with the county auditor. The petition must contain signatures of at least 100 eligible voters living in the jurisdiction. It must be filed with your county auditor by the election filing deadline, which varies by election type. Ask your county auditor for a list of election filing deadlines.
