Deadline for mailed absentee ballots is Wednesday

From submitted reports

Applications for absentee ballots for April 1 elections must be in the hands of the County Election Board no later than 5 p.m. on Wednesday so they can be processed, County Election Board Secretary Cathy Thornton said today.

Any eligible registered voter may vote by absentee ballot without stating a reason, Thornton said. Absentee voters may apply in person at the County Election Board office, located on the first floor of the Pittsburg County Courthouse, 115 E. Carl Albert Pkwy., or they may send their applications by fax, by mail or by telegraph.

Voters also may apply for absentee ballots for the following reasons:

Registered voters who are:

• Physically incapacitated and voters who care for physically incapacitated persons who cannot be left unattended may apply;

• Confined to nursing homes in the county may apply;

• Military personnel, residents of Pittsburg County living overseas and the spouses and dependents of these people are entitled to vote without being registered. They may apply only by mail or fax.

For information on absentee voting, call the election board at 423-3877. The election board fax number is 423-7088.

Also, in-person absentee voting for the April 1 elections is set for Friday from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. and on Monday from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. at the election board office.
