RULES FOR TEXAS MAIL-BALLOT APPLICATIONS

Using this site, you can print out a vote-by-mail application for anyone who meets the criteria of being eligible to vote by mail. The allowed criteria are shown by this site when you are preparing an application. More information can be found on the official Texas' Secretary of State site: http://www.sos.state.tx.us/elections/voter/reqabbm.shtml

This tool will print out where the voter is currently registered to vote, as of our most current data. You must use this "registration" address for this purpose (unless the voter has recently re-registered to vote at a new address). If your voter registration address has been changed and you have a new voter registration card, cross out the incorrect address in the box and write the new one. If you have not updated your address, leave it as it is and change the address in the box of where you wish to the ballot to be sent.

Every application must be mailed in an individual envelope to the address listed on the application. DO NOT put the application of two or more voters in the same envelope.

Texas law allows anyone to assist a voter in filling out and mailing these applications.

However, you may NOT assist a voter in marking the actual ballot or collect the marked ballots of other people to mail them. (An exception applies for a relative to do so for their next of kin.)
