MONTGOMERY — Time is running out if you’re going to be out of town next Tuesday and want to vote.

Ahead of the Nov. 8 General Election, Alabama Secretary of State John Merrill reminds voters that Thursday is the last day to turn in an application by hand for an absentee ballot.

Absentee ballot applications can be downloaded online or requested by visiting or calling the local Absentee Election Manager’s office.

Important absentee voting deadlines are listed below:

  • Thursday: The last day that absentee ballot applications returned by hand can be received by the Absentee Election Manager.
  • Nov. 7: The last day an absentee ballot returned by hand can be received by the Absentee Election Manager.
  • Nov. 8: Absentee ballots returned by mail must be received by the Absentee Election Manager no later than noon.

Voters who are eligible to vote pursuant to the Uniformed and Overseas Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) will have until Nov. 8 to postmark an absentee ballot.
