Absentee Ballot Reminder

Greetings WCA Members,

The date for registering for the November 3rd election has passed. But, for those of you who are already registered, I would like to remind you once again to apply for an absentee ballot if you are going to be out of town on that day. Applications are available at www.voteulster.com or by calling the Board of Elections at (845) 334-5470.

I received an email form the Ulster County Board of Elections saying that they would start mailing absentee ballots beginning on October 15th. Applications for absentee ballots must be postmarked by October 27th. Individuals my apply in person at the Board of Elections through Monday, November 2nd. You can also call the Board of Elections if you have any questions. Once again, that number is (845) 334-5470.

The Board of Elections will also be open extended hours to pick up absentee ballot applications on the following dates:

Tuesday, October 20th (open 9 am - 7 pm)
Thursday, October 22nd (open 9 am - 7 pm)
Saturday, October 24th (open 9 am - 12 pm)
Tuesday, October 27th (open 9 am - 7 pm)
Thursday, October 29th (open 9 am - 7 pm)
Saturday, October 31st (open 9 am - 12 pm)

Please make your voices heard and vote locally!!!!
Best,
Carol Seitz
