Vote from home.
 

Make it count.

Any registered Georgia voter can vote by absentee ballot - no excuse needed. Here’s how to request yours, return it correctly, and confirm it was accepted.

Plan ahead. Georgia accepts absentee ballot applications from 78 to 11 days before Election Day. Your completed ballot must reach your county elections office before polls close on Election Day.

2 / Request Your Ballot

Apply online or send a signed application to your county registrar by email, mail, fax, or in person.

3 / Complete and Return It

Read the enclosed instructions carefully, fill out every required field, sign the oath envelope, and return it early.

Use Georgia’s My Voter Page to verify that your ballot was received and accepted. Act quickly if there’s an issue.
