Instructions for Filling Out The
Absentee Ballot Application
- To vote by absentee ballot: you must be an eligible voter,
and you must reside at the legal residence address you give on
this application on election day. It is a felony to make a false
statement in an application for an absentee ballot, to apply for
an absentee ballot more than once in an election with the intent
to cast an illegal ballot, to show a ballot marked by a person
to another person, or to violate an absentee ballot provision for
the purpose of casting an illegal vote or to help anyone to cast
an illegal vote.
- Be sure to check the appropriate box indicating why you
cannot go to your polling place on Election Day; these are the
only reasons that entitle you to vote by absentee ballot.
- Be sure to give your correct legal residence address as
completely as possible, since this is used to verify your
precinct number.
- Be sure to sign the application.
- Return the completed application as soon as possible to the
election official from whom you received it.
Remember: You must indicate whether you are requesting ballots
for the primary or general election, or both. Do not submit more
than one application for each election. Your absentee ballots
will be mailed or delivered to you as soon as they are
available. Ballots received by election officials after Election
Day will not be counted. Please send your application to Medina
City Hall, 2052 County Road 24, Medina, MN 55340.
