Special Needs Voting For Disabled Voters

A qualified voter who is disabled may apply for an absentee ballot through a personal representative who can bring the ballot to the voter.

  • A personal representative can be anyone over 18, except a candidate for office in the election, the voter's employer, an agent of the voter's employer, or an officer or agent of the voter's union.
  • Ballots are available 15 days before the Primary, General or Statewide Special Election at any Regional Elections Office:

    - Anchorage: 2525 Gambell St, Ste 100 , 522-8683
    - Fairbanks: State Office Building, 675 7th Ave., 451-2835

  • Ballots are available 15 days before the Primary, General or Statewide Special Election from any Absentee Voting Official. Click here (will be updated soon) for a list of absentee voting offices.
  • Ballots are also available on Election Day from the voter's polling place, unless there is an Absentee Official in the area.
  • The Personal Representative brings the completed application to an Election Official for a ballot and takes the ballot to the voter.

  • The Personal Representative brings the voted ballot back to the Election Official by 8:00 p.m. on Election Day.
