Au Train Township shares how to complete an absentee ballot

Au Train Township is sharing information on how to fill out your absentee ballot if that’s the route you plan on using. Here’s what they say.

To vote, completely darken the box opposite each choice. To mark your ballot, use only a black or blue ink pen. To vote the partisan section of the ballot, you may cast a mixed ticket, which means you can mark the individual candidates of your choice in each office. Nonpartisan and proposal sections of the ballot must be voted separately.

Do not vote for more candidates than indicated under each office title. To vote for a candidate whose name is not printed on the ballot, write or place the name of that candidate in the blank space provided and completely darken the voting target area. Do not cast a write-in vote for a candidate whose name is already printed on the ballot for that office. Check both sides of the ballot. This ballot has two sides. Be certain to check the reverse side of that ballot.

When you have completed voting, place the ballot in a secrecy sleeve and then in the postage page, return envelope. You can mail it to you or bring it into your election drop box.
