Absentee Ballot Application

Election time is coming up and there are some important town positions on the ballot. We will be voting on Town Supervisor, 2 Town Board Members, Town Clerk, Highway Superintendent and 2 Assessors. It is always important to make your voices heard but it is especially important in a small town like ours. Even the elections that happen in the years when there is not a Presidential race can dramatically change town government. So it is important to VOTE IN EVERY ELECTION!! Those of you who will not be in the area on election day can vote by absentee ballot. The ballots are being mailed out now. You can download an application from the link below.
