How do I return my absentee ballot?

Once received, the absentee ballot should be voted per the instructions.  The absentee ballot comes with two envelopes -- one Official Ballot (white) envelope and one with an Oath of Elector (yellow), printed on the backside, and that is pre-addressed. Once the voter has made the ballot selections, the procedure is as follows:

  • Seal the ballot in the Official Ballot (white) envelope

  • Place that envelope inside the yellow oath envelope

  • Seal the oath envelope 

  • Sign the oath 

  • Place postage on the pre-addressed envelope

  • Mail or personally deliver the ballot to the Elections Office by 7 pm Election Night

  • For a voter who is disabled, an adult relative, an adult individual residing in the household of the disabled voter, or a caregiver may return the ballot.

All ballots must be returned to:

Elections Office 

65 Lawrenceville St. 

Norcross, GA 30071
