  • How do I cast my ballot?

    If you are voting absentee, you can return your ballot by mail or in-person. If you're returning it in person before Election Day, take it to the Town Clerk's office.

SINCE YOU LAST VOTED…

Since 2020, there have been changes that will impact how you cast your ballot in Vermont. Here are the differences you should keep an eye on:

When making a plan to vote…

  • Vermont now has an all-mail system for general elections. All eligible voters will be mailed a ballot without needing to request one. 

When casting your vote…

  • You can no longer return the ballot of another voter if they are not an immediate family member.
