1. If I am unable to vote in person on Election Day, how do I vote by absentee ballot?

Absentee ballots are available at the Town Clerk’s Office generally about 3 weeks prior to all elections. Voters are eligible to vote by absentee ballot who are unable to vote in person at the polls due to:
- Absence from Concord during polling hours
- Physical disability preventing you from going to the polling place
- Religious belief.

This may be done in person at the Town House by the voter, or by mail. Registered voters (or a member of your immediate family) may complete an absentee ballot application or submit a written request, including the address at which the voter is registered to vote and the address where the ballot should be mailed. The deadline for receipt of applications is Noon on the day before an election. Completed absentee ballots must be received at the Town Clerk’s Office by 8 pm on Election Day.
