Provisional Ballots

If you are a registered voter in your Election District and you are eligible to vote in a Federal Election, but your name does not appear on the official poll list, you may be able to vote by Provisional Ballot. Provisional Ballots cover only Federal offices such as President, Vice President, US Senate and US Congress. To be permitted to vote on a Provisional Ballot, you will be asked to sign an affidavit that says you are a registered voter in that Election District and that you are eligible to vote in that election.

The provisional ballot ONLY covers Federal offices; it cannot be used for local elections.
