Question

What happens when voters are out of state on Election Day?

Answer 1

If voters are out of state on Election Day they can use an absentee ballot to cast their votes.

A voter is usually allocated to a particular polling station. If he is away in another location for any reasons, he can still vote using the absentee ballot.

This can be done today by different means:

- by postal vote ( the voting papers are sent to the voter and he returns them after voting, often in the presence of a witness),

- by proxy voting ( the voter appoints somebody as their proxy, authorizing them to cast a vote for him),

- by internet voting.

The most common way to vote on an absentee ballot in the United States is by postal vote, called 'mail in paper ballot'.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is that voters can cast their vote through absentee ballot.

When the voters are out of the state on the day of voting, they can cast their vote through absentee ballot.

Explanation :

In the cases when the voter is absent from the state in the date of the election, the state can mail the ballot to the voter to hold absentee voting. The absentee voting is held one day before the day of the elections. The absentee voter is then required to return the ballot in person or through the mail.

Further Explanation :

The rules about who can cast the vote through absentee ballot differ from state to state. The state may provide a voter with absentee ballot provided that the voter satisfies all the necessary conditions and terms placed by the state. A vote can cast absentee vote given that :

• He/she is an overseas citizen of the United States who used to live in United States.

• They are the military members of the United States or their family members who are stationed outside the state.

• The United States citizens who are settled in abroad but have never lived in the United States are not eligible to become absentee voters.

Thus the military members and the citizens of the United States are expected to submit their Federal Post Card Application requesting for their absentee ballot and return their ballots in the due time after casting their vote.
