Georgia voters now may apply for absentee ballots for the Nov. 8 election, according to a news release.
To request an absentee ballot, voters can submit a written application to their local county registrar or log on to the office’s “My Voter Page (MVP) ” to print the application and mail the completed form to their registrar.
“Through MVP, requesting an absentee ballot has never been easier in Georgia,” Secretary of State Brian Kemp said in the release. “I was proud to bring this new innovation to our state along with other helpful web-based platforms, such as the online voter registration system and the ‘GA Votes’ smartphone app.”
Voters are advised to request absentee ballots before Nov 4 to vote by mail in the general election.
Georgia residents must be registered to vote by Oct. 11 to cast a ballot in November.
