Starting on Tuesday, July 28, City of Madison voters will be able to cast absentee ballots at drive-up voting locations.
Absentee voting locations are being established based on a Pandemic Voting Access Equity Analysis PDF conducted after the April election, according to a press release from the City of Madison, and part of the Clerk’s Office safe voting plan for fall elections are to offer absentee voting outdoors. Voters are encouraged to check the Clerk’s Office website or call the Clerk’s Office before heading to an absentee voting site in inclement weather.
Voters may use their own blue or black ballpoint pen to mark their ballot. If planning to use their own pen, the voter should wave their pen at the absentee ballot clerk approaching their vehicle.
Absentee clerks will be wearing facemasks and high visibility vests, according to the City of Madison, and they will disinfect pens, clipboards, and envelope sealers after each use. The absentee clerks will be able to check voter ID through the voter’s vehicle window. If the voter needs to register to vote, the absentee clerk will be able to view the voter’s proof of address through the vehicle window.
