Contact your municipal clerk and request that an application for an absentee ballot be sent to you for the upcoming election.  You may also submit a written request in the form of a letter or you may apply for an absentee ballot online at MyVote.wi.gov.  Your written request must list your voting address within the municipality where you wish to vote, the address where the absentee ballot should be sent, and your signature.  You may make application to your municipal clerk for an absentee ballot in person, by mail, by fax, by email or at MyVote.wi.gov.

 

Each person requesting an absentee ballot must provide

a signature and a valid picture I.D.

 

Special absentee voting application provisions apply to electors who are indefinitely confined to home or a care facility, in the military, hospitalized, or serving as a sequestered juror. 

If this applies to you, contact the municipal clerk.

and vote an absentee ballot during the hours specified for casting an absentee ballot.
