Whether you vote in-person during your state’s early voting period or on Election Day - Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2024, it’s important to get informed about your rights and responsibilities well before the big day. Voters in most states also have the option of voting by absentee or mail-in ballot.
Voting requires forethought and planning, and for justice-impacted voters, it may require even more planning. If you have been convicted of a crime, or you are or were recently incarcerated, then you’ll need to do some extra research before registering to vote and casting a ballot following the restoration of your civil rights.
Absentee voting, whether you live in the U.S. or are one of the millions of overseas voters, offers you the convenience of selecting candidates for office at the time of your choosing: after work, around the table with your family, or from your couch. No need to wait in line, and no time limits (as you might experience on Election Day or during early voting) as long as you mail in or place your voted ballot in a drop box by the deadline.
But then - you may wonder, "where's my ballot"? Almost all states have some form of ballot tracking. There are a couple that don’t have state-wide ballot tracking, but they may still offer ballot tracking at the county level.
