Application Information

Application Form

You are eligible to vote early by mail if you are a registered voter who is:

• 65 years of age or older

• out of the county during the entire election (must provide out of county address)

• sick or disabled

• confined in jail, but eligible to vote.

To vote by mail, you must first apply for a ballot. The Denton County Elections office does not send out applications or ballots without a specific request from the voter. We must receive your application no earlier than 60 days before election day and no later than the close of business 9 days before election day. If the deadline falls on a weekend, the last day to submit an application is the preceding Friday. If the deadline falls on a state or federal holiday, the ballot must be received on the preceding business day.

Mail your application for a ballot to:

P.O. Box 1720
Denton, TX 76202

OR

701 Kimberly, Suite A101
Denton, TX 76208

Military and overseas citizens should use the Federal Postcard Application (FPCA).

You do not have to use a formal application; however, an informal application must be in writing and include:

• your signature (or a witness’ signature if you cannot sign);

• your name and the address at which you are registered to vote;

• the address to which the ballot is to be mailed;

• the election date and for which election you are requesting a ballot (for a primary election, you must state the political party’s primary in which you wish to vote); and,

• a reason why you are eligible to vote early by mail (to be eligible to vote early due to a planned absence from the county, your application must state an address out-of-county to have your ballot mailed).

We must receive your marked ballot by 7 p.m. on election day! If you are mailing your ballot from outside the United States, we must receive your ballot by the fifth day after election day.
