Absentee (Mail-in) Voting
Any registered voter may vote absentee in Arizona.
An early ballot may be requested through Arizona’s Voter Information Portal or by contacting your County Recorder’s office. To have your name placed on the Permanent Early Voter List (PEVL), complete a new voter registration form and check the box marked “YES, I want to automatically receive an early ballot for each election for which I am eligible.”
Your request must be received 11 days before Election Day, and your completed ballots must be received by close of polls on Election Day.
Early Voting
Early voting is available beginning 27 days before Election Day, ending at 5 PM the Friday before Election Day.
Check with your County Recorder for specific times, dates, and locations.
