Election Basics
This election will be an election by mail. Each registered voter residing within the District will receive a ballot by mail at his/her address as it appears on the voter registration register; and therefore no polling places will be open for voting. Ballots will be mailed to voters by the Election Commissioners between July 24, 2023 - August 4, 2023.
Registered voters wishing to vote in the Special Election who will be absent from their residence between July 24, 2023 and August 15, 2023 may contact their specific County Election Commissioner’s Office.
