A voter that chooses absentee voting requests an absentee ballot, that is then mailed to their voting address and filled out. Voters then mail back the ballot or drop it off at the county clerk’s office to be recorded. Early in-person voting looks much like how someone would expect a typical voting day to go. Early in-person voters are given a ballot, fill it out, and then it is inserted into the tabulator on site. Any register voter in the state can vote early and in-person.
