Voting (Ballots) by Mail
|
To vote by mail, you must request a ballot for each election. To be
eligible
to vote by mail in Texas, you must:
- be 65 years or older;
- be disabled;
- be out of the county on election day and during the period for early voting by personal
appearance; or
- be confined in jail, but otherwise eligible.
Notes:
- Regular mail ballot applications for the over 65 years of age or Disabled groups
are only applicable for the one election that the application is filled out for.
- If you are in the military or a citizen overseas, click

to obtain a Federal Post Card Application (FPCA). These applications stay in effect
for 2 Federal Elections so it is important to update your mailing
address with the county.
