Advance Voting

By Mail

You can apply to vote by mail in any primary or general election. No-excuse advance voting by mail has been an option for Johnson County voters since 1996.

Applications pre-filled with your information are available by using our voter lookup tool. Blank applications are available online.

You can apply at any time, but ballots do not begin mailing until 20 days before an election. Applications must be received by 5 p.m. on the Tuesday before Election Day.

You can return your voted ballot one of four ways:

• By mail: Ballots returned by mail must be postmarked by Election Day and received by the Friday after Election Day.
• To any advance voting location: Ballots can be returned to any advance voting location during voting hours. Election workers will direct you to the ballot bag inside the location.
• To any Election Day polling location: Ballots can be returned to any Election Day polling location during voting hours. Election workers will direct you to the ballot bag inside the location.
• To any ballot drop box: Ballot drop boxes are available 24/7 beginning 20 days before an election. The boxes close at 7 p.m. on Election Day.

Ballot drop boxes for the next election are listed below.
