Absentee Ballot Application Begins

In the upcoming presidential election, people who are unable to vote in the place they registered in can use the absentee voting system if they report this in advance. Village and town offices will accept absentee ballot applications by mail, and voters can go and register in person by November 25. Those who are registered can vote in absentee voting polls set up nationwide on December 13 and 14 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in advance of the presidential election date.
