Thurston County is dedicated to ensuring ballot access is available to our overseas citizens and our service members in an expedited manner.
These citizens are provided extra securities and measures under the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA).
Any Thurston County resident that is Active-Duty military, is an immediate family member of an Active-Duty service member, or is a citizen overseas, has many options to participate, cast a ballot, and help us ensure their votes count. |

Already Registered? |
| |
For those voters that have given us proper notice and have confirmed military / overseas status, we deliver ballots 31-plus days prior to the election date.
|
| |
Need to Register? |
For those UOCAVA voters that have not yet registered, the Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) is the preferred form for registering to vote. You may complete and print this form directly from the Federal Voting Assistance Program website. If there are less than 40 days till the date of the election, we recommend that you also contact our office to ensure your application is processed in time for you to participate in the election.

| |
Registered but Need Extra Time? |
For those UOCAVA voters that are always on the move, or in areas of extremely slow postal service, we also provide E-Ballots. E-Ballot program participants are sent their ballot materials electronically. The voter must print, vote, and return their ballot package by mail. This adds more time for ballot delivery earlier in the election process.
