Absentee voters in the Town of Greenville and all across Wisconsin may be unfamiliar with how to properly complete their absentee ballot certificate.
Included in the absentee ballot
mailings is a checklist with a pictorial guide. We work hard to make
absentee voting as understandable as possible.
All of the language on the envelope is
required by state law, and it can be very small type and difficult to
understand. That is why we highlight those lines you need to fill out
so your vote can be counted.
Here are 4 simple steps to make sure your absentee ballot will be counted on Election Day.
- Complete your ballot.
- Seal your ballot inside the certificate envelope provided.
- Voter signs in Box 3.
- Voter’s Witness signs and writes their address in Box 4.
If we receive your ballot and the certificate envelope is incomplete or missing information, we must send your ballot back to you if time allows prior to election day or reject your ballot on election day if we cannot reach you to complete the certificate properly. IT IS IMPERATIVE FOR ABSENTEE VOTERS TO FULLY COMPLETE THE CERTIFICATE ENVELOPE prior to returning the ballot.
