I want to vote in person on (or before) Election Day.
Just bring the blank absentee ballot and envelopes to the Town Office when you come in to vote. A poll worker will collect them, check you in, and you're off to the races.
If you don't bring the absentee ballot with you, that's okay too. When you come to vote, you'll complete an Affidavit of No Ballot Cast. By signing this, you are legally attesting that you have not already voted with your absentee ballot.
I want to vote with an absentee ballot.
When you get your absentee ballot in the mail, fill out both sides with black pen. Put the absentee ballot in the Voted Ballot Envelope (the smallest one) and fill out the front. This envelope goes in the Return Envelope. Postage is already paid, so drop it in the mail or in the secure drop box outside of the Town Office.
I want to vote with an absentee ballot...but I need it sent somewhere other than my Shoreham address.
Contact the Town Office. You'll complete an Affidavit of No Ballot Cast (see above), and we'll send a new absentee ballot to the address you want. Please do this as soon as possible to avoid mail delays!
Fill out the absentee ballot as above and envelopes as described above. Pop these in the Return Envelope and mail it back - postage is prepaid.
