How Do I Cast My Paper Ballot?

If you want to cast a paper ballot in person, there are two things you will need to bring with you:

• An acceptable piece of identification.
• Your Voter Information Letter, if you received one.

Here is the process for voting in person:

• When you arrive at the voting location of your choice, go to any available voter registration/revisions station to be crossed off the voters’ list and receive your ballot. Election officials will scan the barcode at the top of your VIL or use the personal information you provide to look you up on the voters’ list and confirm that your information is up to date.
• Once your information has been verified, you will be given a paper ballot in a secrecy sleeve based on your designated ward and school board support.
• Take your paper ballot to a voting booth and, using the pen provided, mark the ballot with your choices.
• Once you have marked your ballot, put it back into the secrecy sleeve and proceed to the ballot box.
• The ballot custodian will make sure the Election Official has initialed your ballot and help you place it in the ballot box.
