Attention Voters: Time is Running Out to Request Mail-in, Absentee Ballots

En español | Voters in several states are running out of time to request an absentee or mail-in ballot for their upcoming general election. In some states, like New Jersey and Virginia, any registered voter can cast an absentee ballot without providing a reason.
