City Clerk's Office

The City of Madison issued a total of 5,325 ballots to in-person absentee voters for the April 4 Spring Election.  That total is just 225 ballots less than the number of absentee ballots cast in person for the 2016 Presidential Primary.
 
The City Clerk’s Office has issued 8,930 absentee ballots for this election, including absentee ballots sent by mail and absentee ballots cast at absentee voting locations throughout the city.  There are 1,652 absentee ballots that have yet to be returned to be counted.  Election Day is the deadline for the Clerk’s Office to receive absentee ballots.

Absentee ballots are counted at the polls on Election Day.  Voter turnout in the City of Madison has increased since a federal court ruling last fall lifted the state prohibition on municipalities offering more than one location for in-person absentee voting.

Only hospitalized voters and sequestered jurors are able to vote absentee the day before an election or on Election Day.

Polling places will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. this Tuesday.  To find your polling place, visit www.cityofmadison.com/WhereDoIVote.
