ANNAPOLIS, Md. – The Maryland State Board of Elections reminds voters that the deadline to request a mail-in ballot for the upcoming General Election is approaching.
To receive a mail-in ballot by mail, your request must be received (not just mailed) by October 29. The deadline to request a web delivery mail-in ballot is November 1. Visit SBE’s mail-in ballot webpage to request a ballot. Mail-in ballots returned by mail must be postmarked by or before 8 p.m. on Election Day, Tuesday, November 5. If returned by hand, ballots must be dropped at a ballot drop box or local board of elections by 8 p.m. on November 5. A list of drop box locations is here (en espanol).
To date, more than 816,000 Maryland voters have requested mail-in ballots.
“I urge every voter who wants to cast a mail-in ballot to act before the approaching deadline,” said Jared DeMarinis. “Mail-in ballots are a secure and convenient option for casting your vote.”
For registered voters, there are two other ways to vote in this election: vote early in-person or vote on Election Day.
Vote Early In-Person: Early voting begins Thursday, October 24 and runs through Thursday, October 31. Early voting centers are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Find the list of early voting centers here (en espanol).
Vote on Election Day: To find your Election Day polling place, visit SBE’s Find My Polling Place portal. Election Day polling places will be open November 5 from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Marylanders can also register to vote the same day they cast their vote. Make sure to bring a document that proves where you live when you visit your local polling place.
if you’re undecided, thats fine, leave the ballot blank. But this is not a year to sit it out. Please, a no\ against on the ballot questions.
Don’t forget to contact the residents of the cemeteries in the area for their votes as well
you know, when you visit the cemetery, you don’t care what you look like. Why then, are you concerned about what you look like when you go to a funeral?
all too often, the deceased are treated as though they’re deceased.
what to do about the judges, the appeals judges? Why is that space set up so that its yes\ no instead of no\ yes? If it were no\ yes, do the judges stand a chance of getting no’ ed out of office?
