Important Tips on Voting Day

USE A BLUE BALL POINT PEN

FELT TIP MARKERS can bleed-through causing tabulation machine confusion. Bring and use your own blue ballpoint pen when marking your ballot.

MAKE SURE YOU ARE REGISTERED TO VOTE

PROPER

IDENTIFICATION

You must bring a government-issued ID with you to the vote center. If your address on your ID does not match your Voter Registration, bring a banking statement and utility bill with your name and registered address on it.

TRACK YOUR BALLOT

You can track your mail-in ballot or find a polling place close to you by going to BeBallotReady.vote.

It is always our recommendation to vote in person on Election Day.

WHY DO ELECTION RESULTS TAKE SO LONG?

Election Day votes take one day to tabulate and process because voter identification is verified by a poll worker at the polling center in person day-of.

All mail-in ballots must go through the process of signature verification manually. Several polling centers are open prior to Election Day for in-person voting. You can find an early-voting polling center by going to BeBallotReady.vote. The deadline to mail your ballot is October 29, 2024.

Mail-in ballot signatures that cannot be verified must go through a statutorily-mandated curing process, by which, Maricopa County Elections Department contacts the voter to verify their signature. Should the voter not respond, uncured ballots are not counted. It is recommended you add your contact information on your mail-in ballot envelope should any issues with your mail-in ballot arise.
