early voting instructions<br />
Beginning 15 days prior to the election, and continuing through<br />
Election Day, voters may vote:<br />
• Early at a Regional Elections Office in the jurisdiction where<br />
the voter is registered. Regional offices are located in Juneau,<br />
Anchorage, Wasilla, Fairbanks and Nome.<br />
• In-person absentee at any Regional Elections Office or absentee<br />
voting location.<br />
What is the difference between in-person<br />
voting and early absentee voting?<br />
When voting early, the voter’s eligibility to vote is verified at the time<br />
of voting through the Division of Elections statewide voter registration<br />
system. A voter is eligible to vote early if the voter is voting at the<br />
Regional Elections Office where the voter is registered and if the voter’s<br />
registration record is active and current. Early voting is available only<br />
during Primary, General and Statewide Special Elections. Since the<br />
voter’s eligibility to vote could be verified, the voter simply signs a<br />
certificate and the voted ballot is placed directly into the ballot box.<br />
When voting in-person absentee, the voter’s eligibility to vote is verified<br />
after the voter is issued a ballot. In-person absentee voting is available<br />
at each Regional Elections Office and at many absentee voting<br />
locations throughout the state. Since the voter’s eligibility could not be<br />
verified at the time of voting, the voter’s voted ballot is placed inside<br />
an absentee voting envelope prior to being placed in the ballot box.<br />
When do early and in-person absentee<br />
voting sites open?<br />
Most early vote and in-person absentee voting sites open 15 days<br />
before Election Day and remain open through Election Day. Times and<br />
dates may vary depending on the location and/or community.<br />
Locate an Early Vote and In-Person Voting Location near you.<br />
What ballots are available at each site?<br />
Some voting sites will have ballots for all 40 house districts, some<br />
will have ballots for a single district and some will have ballots for<br />
multiple districts at one location.<br />
When are early and in-person absentee<br />
ballots counted?<br />
The Division of Elections counts all early and in-person absentee ballots<br />
that are eligible to be counted from election night through up to 15<br />
days after the election. The dates and times when early and in-person<br />
absentee ballots are counted will be determined prior to each election.<br />
