The Primary Election is One Week Away!

The 2023 primary election is one week away! Polls are open on Tuesday, May 16 from 7 AM to 8 PM. Here is all of the election day information you need:

Voting by mail: Today is the deadline to request your mail or absentee ballot. Ballots must be RECEIVED by your county election office on election day – May 16 – at 8 PM. Postmarks do not count. If your ballot is not yet mailed, we recommend dropping it off at a ballot drop box or your county election office. Find a drop-off location in your county here.

Finally, to ensure your vote is counted, follow all instructions carefully. Find a step-by-step guide for completing your ballot here.

Voting in person: Planning to vote in person? Find your polling place here. When voting at a polling place for the first time, you must show proof of identification, either with a photo or not. Learn more about the types of ID you can show here.

Research your candidates: Unfamiliar with your candidates? We’ve got you covered! Our FREE online tool, Vote411, is a "one-stop-shop" for election-related information. Using Vote411, you can see what will be on your ballot based on your address, choose candidates based on information they posted in their own words, and have a personalized ballot emailed to you that you can take with you when you vote.
