My roomie & I had a mutual 1st yesterday. We used an absentee voting ballot. Neither of us is in the greatest health & mobility can is an issue. Our county/state keeps trying to lead the way on how to get coronavirus. It's very frustrating. With the COVID numbers still climbing, we opted for the absentee ballot.
It's different, normally, you just grab your ID & go to the voting center. With this, you have to request a ballot. We did that online. Then wait for it to arrive, which took about a week. Then the process begins.
There are 4 envelopes in total. The 1st is what the packet arrived in, it's done it's duty, but don't throw it away yet. Check & make sure the address is correct. Then it can can hold the leftover inserts.
1st, read the instructions & legalities. Next, find the ballot & figure out how you're going to vote. Then fill it out as described. This goes in the 2nd envelope marked, ballot.
This is stuffed in the affidavit envelope. Fill out the pertinent info & then seal it with the ballot envelope inside. We had to attach copies of our ID to this envelope. Finally seal & insert into the final envelope. This 1 is for the return mail. It needs postage, ours took 2 stamps.
Now mail & wait. Oklahoma has a place online you can check the process. It was unusual, but helpful this year. If you're doing this, do it NOW or ASAP. Just remember to vote.
Cya...
