It's simple to receive a ballot by mail, complete a short application form before November 3rd.
You only have to walk as far as your mailbox for your ballot and vote stress-free from your own sofa.
Mail your voted ballot to the Clerk’s office with a postmark no later than end of the day on Election Day.
On November 8, confidently watch the election results knowing that your vote was cast and counted – and you didn’t have to stand in line to vote. You can track the Clerk’s receipt of your ballot at LakeVoterPower.info.
When received by the Clerk’s office, all voted by mail ballots are cast in a ballot bin. According to legal requirements ballots are tabulated and reported after the polls close on election night.
Visit Lake CountyClerk.info and click on the “November 8 Election” icon to see a candidate list, your personalized ballot, dates and locations for early voting, vote by mail application, or Election Day voting information. Online, in-person, or by mail voter registration is also listed on this page.
Although November’s election is currently the big topic, the Clerk’s office is already looking forward to the 2017 elections in February and April. Candidates wishing to appear on next year’s ballot are currently circulating petition papers and collecting the required number of signatures.
Later this year, candidates will file their papers with the local unit of government where they are seeking office. At a recent meeting of local township and municipal clerks, Clerk Wyckoff explained the filing procedures and how to accept these nomination papers.
