enable displaced voters and first responders to vote by provisional
ballot at a polling place in a county other than the voter's county of
registration. The deadline for county clerks to receive mail-in ballots
has been extended to November 19, 2012, for any ballot postmarked on or
before November 5, 2012.
Mail-in ballots post marked later than November 5 will not be accepted.
County elections officials have also been directed to print a sufficient number of provisional and emergency ballots to accommodate voters. Voters are encouraged to take advantage of extended office hours at county elections offices to cast their vote early and in-person. Registered voters can obtain and cast their ballot in-person at their county elections office up until 3 pm Tuesday. County election offices are to remain open, at a minimum, from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm throughout the weekend, until November 5.
