Absentee Ballot Requests

1. Request your Absentee Ballot

You must request your ballot every year in order to vote absentee. You can request your ballot online through the Secretary of State’s Office at voteidaho.gov. You can also contact our office for help by calling (208) 382-7143. Registered voters who do not request their ballot by filling out and submitting an absentee ballot request form, will NOT automatically be mailed a ballot.

Absentee ballots CAN NOT be picked up at the Elections Office, they must be sent by USPS mail delivery.

Please note, you will need to be registered to vote to participate in the upcoming elections. You can register online at voteidaho.gov
