CLARK, Mildred Octavie

-

Office, shared a list of frequently asked questions related to the online ballot requests.

Q: Can anyone use this website?

A: Any registered Georgia voter is eligible to request and cast an absentee ballot. State law has allowed any voter to use an absentee ballot since 2005.

Q: What informatio­n do I need to enter?

A: Voters need to type five pieces of informatio­n to get started: their first name, last name, birth date, county, and driver’s license or state ID number. Then on the next screen, they can choose what address their ballot should be mailed to and enter an email address to receive a

confirmati­on that their applicatio­n has been received. Voters who are over 65 years old, physically disabled or living overseas are eligible to sign up to receive an absentee ballot for future elections in this election cycle.

Q: How does the website check my identity?

A: The absentee ballot request website matches informatio­n with voter registrati­on records. If your name, birth date, county and ID don’t match, you won’t be able to proceed. After three failed attempts, the website will direct you to fill out a PDF applicatio­n that can be mailed or emailed to county election offices.

Q: Can I track my absentee ballot online?

A: The status of absentee ballot requests will be reflected on the My Voter Page at mvp.sos.ga.gov after county election officials accept them. Then voters will be able to see the date their absentee ballot applicatio­n was received, the date their ballot was issued, and the date the completed ballot was received by the county.

Q: When will absentee ballots arrive at voters’ homes?

A: Absentee ballots will begin to be mailed to voters around Sept. 18, which is 46 days before the Nov. 3 election.
