Voters can request absentee ballots online or in-person at the Manchester Town Clerk’s Office!
Authorized family members or health care providers can request absentee ballots on a voter’s behalf. However, they cannot pick up the ballot on their behalf. Only individual voters may receive their ballot. When requesting on behalf of another person, the ballot will be mailed.
You must request your absentee ballots at least once a year, for any and all elections you want to vote in during that year. You may request ballots until 2pm in the Manchester Town Clerk's Office on the day preceding an election.
Vermont only mails ballots automatically for General Elections (occurring every two years). Absentee ballots are provided by request only for all other elections.
If you are out of town, be aware that ballots are not forwarded unless you have a premium service! You may request your ballot be sent to a specific address, without changing your current mailing address. This ensures the rest of your state mail is sent to your usual mailing address.
