If you must return the ballot by postal mail, do it ASAP! Mail has been taking longer so you must allow for more time to meet deadlines. These states require the completed ballot to be returned by postal mail: Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey *, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont*, Virginia, Wisconsin (*special conditions apply - check out https://www.votefromabroad.org/states/ for details).

If you don't think your ballot will get back on time if you use the mail, you can use an international express mail service. But that is more expensive. Click button below for more details.

Take a photo of yourself once you've voted. (You could be next to the mailbox or the computer, depending how you return your ballot). Upload the photo to your social media. Tag 5 friends and ask them to post a photo once they have voted too! Make sure to hashtag #IVotedFromAbroad and tag @VotefromAbroad. Click button below for details.

Not all of us are social media warriors, but you aren't off the hook for spreading the word! Text/WhatsApp 5 of your US citizen friends/acquaintances and tell them you've voted. Ask them to tell you when they've voted too. Click button below for a sample text to cut and paste.
