Many states require printed forms to request and submit an absentee ballot. If you do not have a printer and are in the DC area, you can print your forms at the Pence Law Library. There will be volunteers at the main campus library on September 19-21, 2022 to assist with requesting and submitting an absentee ballot.

If you are unable to come to campus or are not in the DC area, Vote.org will print your absentee ballot application and mail it to you with a pre-paid envelope. 

Some states also require printed copies of your ID. Voteriders.org will print your copies and forms and mail them to your current address with a pre-paid envelope.

If you are concerned about post office delays, many states are allowing voters to submit their absentee ballots to a ballot drop box. These are secure boxes where deposited ballots are later collected by election officials.

For more information on ballot drop boxes, head to your state or local election office website.
