Absentee voting is also known as Voting by Mail. Anyone can vote using an absentee ballot for any reason. Vote by mail requests begins on March 30th and runs through June 25.     Vote by mail application

As of July 1, 2014, any registered voter may apply for an Absentee ballot online. The online application for an absentee ballot will be available on your election authority’s website at least 90 days before the election. You should contact your election authority if you have questions about how this works.

After checking that you are a registered voter, the election authority will send a paper ballot to the address you provide in your application. The last day to apply for an absentee ballot online is five days before an election.

Once you receive the ballot in the mail, you must fill out the ballot and then mail it back. You must mail it back in the envelope given to you and you must sign and seal it, as instructed. If you mail it back, it must be postmarked no later than midnight on the night before the election. If you wish, you may take your ballot to the election authority and vote your ballot there. 

You may receive help in marking your absentee ballot. The person helping you must sign the envelope, stating that they helped you.

You should contact your local election authority if you wish to register and vote during the grace period or if you have questions about how this works.

 VOTING REGISTRATION FROM "EQUIP FOR EQUALITY"
Recently, there have been a number of changes that have expanded voting rights and made voter registration and voting easier. 





Online Voter Registration
The Illinois State Board of Elections started  online voter registration system that allows you to register to vote or update your voter registration electronically on the internet (online).  
Voting is a fundamental right for all citizens. This fact sheet is designed to give people with disabilities, including older Americans with physical, mental, sensory or cognitive impairments, useful information on exercising their right to vote.  Topics include Voter registration, Grace period registration,  Early voting, Voting by mail, Voting while living in a nursing home, voting if you are admitted to a health care facility* within 14 days of an election, curbside voting,
and assistance in voting.  

Our Office Locations page will give you addresses for each office, as well as phone, fax and other contact information.  Our offices are located in the following Illinois cities: Carbondale, Chicago, and Springfield.  This system is only for voter registration. You cannot vote online.  To use this new system go here. 

​Note:   To use the online system to register to vote, you must provide an Illinois Driver’s License Number or State Identification Card Number. If you do not have either form of ID, contact the Secretary of State to find out how to get one. You can call 1-800-252-8980 or visit cyberdriveilliinois.com.​
