VOTING BY ABSENTEE BALLOT

Any qualified elector who is unable or unwilling to appear at the polling place on Election Day may submit a request to vote an absentee ballot to their municipal clerk.  A qualified elector is any U.S. citizen, who will be 18 years of age or older on Election Day, who has resided in the ward or municipality where he or she wishes to vote for at least 28 consecutive days before the election.  The elector must also be registered in order to receive an absentee ballot.  Proof of identification must be provided before an absentee ballot may be issued.

You must make a request for an absentee ballot with the absentee ballot application or online at MyVote.wi.gov.

Please fill out and sign the absentee ballot application below and return to your municipal clerk with a copy of your photo ID for an absentee ballot in person, by mail, by fax, by email or you may apply at MyVote.wi.gov.
