Voting Assistance

Military and Overseas Citizens Can Vote. Wherever they are.

The Voting Assistance Office provides uniformed service members and their family members with information and assistance on how to request an absentee ballot and vote absentee. We will also provide civilians with information and assistance on procedures to register to vote and update voter registration information (e.g., change of address).

You can also access many voting-related questions and answers on the Federal Voting Assistance Program website.

Absentee Voters:
The Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP) recommends military and eligible family members, who are away from their voting jurisdiction, and U.S. citizens overseas submit a Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) to ensure receipt of absentee ballots.

To register and request an absentee ballot, fill out the FPCA:
• On-line: http://fvap.gov/r3/fpca/state
• Fillable: http://fvap.gov/uploads/FVAP/Forms/fpca.pdf
• Hard-copy: Installation Voter Assistance Office, Military and Family Readiness Center
