Vote by Mail or Absentee Ballot
If you plan to vote in a state other than Oklahoma, you will need to either be in that state during early voting or on Election Day or you will need to request an absentee/vote by mail ballot. As with voter registration, the steps you follow will depend on which state you want to vote in.
If you're not sure where to find your state's absentee/mail-in voting protocols, visit the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS) website to locate your state's election board page and other state-specific voter information. Simply click on the NASS Website button below.
Campus Vote Project offers student voting guides for each state, which include important dates and deadlines, official election websites, and information about absentee/mail-in voting. To access the Campus Vote Project site, click on the button below.
Where should I send my absentee ballot?
You should have your absentee ballot sent anywhere you know you will have access to receiving mail. This may be your campus address, your permanent address, or a friend or relative's address. Your friend or relative can then get your ballot to you wherever you are. Please note, however, that ballots can't be forwarded; they have to be re-mailed in an outer envelope with new stamps.
