Curbside Voting
CLICK HERE
The law requires that each polling place must designate a parking space for curbside voting. Please keep in mind that there will be only one curbside parking space. The space must be clearly marked with a sign that indicates that the space is reserved for curbside voting.
Handicap spaces that are NOT MARKED AS CURBSIDE VOTING can not be used for curbside voting. Only vehicles that are in the curbside voting space can be voted.
The sign should display a telephone number that a voter may call or text to request assistance from an election officer. Some polling locations may provide a button or an intercom that a voter can use to request assistance. Generally speaking, you may vote curbside during the early voting period (the 17th day before Election Day until the 4th day before Election Day for most elections) or on Election Day. For a May uniform election date or resulting runoff election or some special elections, the early voting period is the 12th day before Election Day until the 4th day before Election Day.
If a voter is physically unable to enter the polling place, he or she may ask that an election officer bring a ballot to the entrance of the polling place or to a car parked at the curbside. After the voter marks the ballot, they will give it to the election officer, who will put it in the ballot box. Or, at the voter’s request, a companion may hand the voter a ballot and deposit it for him or her.
If you plan to go alone to vote curbside, it is wise to call ahead so election officials will expect you. Generally speaking, you may vote curbside during the early voting period or on Election Day.
