Time’s running out
By Yessie | September 21, 2008
I just realized it’s almost the end of September and I still haven’t figured out if I’m able to cast an absentee ballot from Australia for the upcoming November presidential election! Eek. I guess I better start looking that up.

There’s still time, but yeah, you should hurry. Here’s a link, if you need one:

We just printed out the absentee ballots, filled them out, and mailed them to the county clerk in the last NJ county we lived in. I think there’s also an option to fax them, but I’m not sure about that??

Cool! Thanks. Wish I had seen this one before I sent out our voter registration and request for absentee ballot to be sent in the mail. So you already voted?

Oh, no, sorry, I didn’t mean to say we filled out our ballots, I meant we filled out our applications FOR our ballots. They received them in NJ (DH called to confirm), and our ballots should be to us within a week or so, I think.

Oh ok! So it’s the same thing we did just today from another site. Who do you call to confirm?

DH called the County Clerk’s office (in our case, in Morristown). It goes by whatever county you lived in before you moved, provided you were there more than a certain number of months (not sure how many).
