Absentee and Early Voting

The primary election is quickly approaching. There are several contested races in the Democratic Primary, and it is important to show support for the party by requesting a Democratic ballot. The Indiana Primary is Tuesday May 6 from 6:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. You will need a photo I.D. to vote. There will also be early voting in the Clerk's Office Monday through Friday from 8:00-4:00, with the office closed from 12:00-1:00 for lunch. It will also be open on the next two Saturdays from 8:00-3:00. The day before the election, the office will only be open from 8:00-12:00. The Clerk's Office is on the 2nd floor of the Courthouse, downtown. You will also need a photo I.D. to vote in the Clerk's Office.

There is also still time to vote absentee. However, the Clerk must receive the application by Monday, April 28 at noon in order to mail out the absentee ballot. The Clerk must receive your ballot back in their office by Election Day. Here is a list of the things that would allow you to vote absentee:

1. You have a specific, reasonable expectation that you will be absent from the county on Election Day during the entire 12 hours that the polls are open (6 am until 6 pm).
2. You have a disability.
3. You are at least 65 years of age.
4. You will have official election duties outside of your voting precinct.
5. You are scheduled to work at your regular place of employment during the entire 12 hours that the polls are open.
