Absentee Voters

Absent voter ballots are available for all elections and for all registered voters. They provide voters with a convenient method for casting a ballot. As a registered voter, you may obtain an absent voter ballot.

The Township Office will be open on the Saturday prior to an Election from 7:00 am until 3:00 pm to accept Absentee Ballot Applications.
