How Vote By Mail Works in Wyoming

Voting by mail is a two step process in Wyoming.

Step 1: Request your ballot NOW. The deadline to request your ballot by mail is the day before Election Day. We recommend that you apply as soon as possible. If possible, we suggest applying for your ballot at least two weeks in advance to allow for plenty of time to complete and return it.

Step 2: Complete and return your ballot ASAP.

  • Return in person to your county clerk's office by Election Day at 7 p.m.
  • Or stamp and mail your ballot -  ballots must be received by Election Day. We recommend mailing your ballot at least two weeks before as the post office is not always reliable. The best intentions or postmark will not matter if your ballot is received after Election Day - your ballot will not count.

After you complete your ballot, sign the affidavit on the return envelope. 

If you forget to sign the oath, your ballot will be tossed and your vote will not count.

How You Can Return Your Mail-in Ballot

If you return your ballot by mail, you must add a stamp when mailing in your ballot.

You can also drop off your ballot in person at your local elections office.

Can Someone Else Return Your Ballot For You?

Anyone may return a ballot your behalf but this issue is currently a part of pending legislation, and is subject to change before this year’s election.

Haven't used your ballot?

If you would like to vote in person, request to vote in person on Election Day. It is not required that you return your unused ballot in order to vote.
