INSTRUCTIONS FOR VOTERS

  • Go to the entrance checklist table, give your name, and if asked, your street address to the election official in a loud voice.
  • Wait until your name is repeated and checked off by the official.
  • If you want to use the accessible voting system tell the entrance checklist official at this time. An election official will take you to the accessible ballot marking device, enter a security code, and then leave you to mark and print your ballot privately. More details about our new accessible ballot marking device are available on our website at https://sos.vermont.gov/elections/voters/accessible-voting/.
  • Take the ballot from the election official and enter a voting booth. Once inside the voting booth, mark your ballot for each race.
  • To vote for a candidate, fill in the oval to the right of the name of the candidate. Do not vote for more candidates than the “Vote for not more than #” for each or office. If you vote for more than the “Vote for not more than #,” your vote will not count for that race.
  • WRITE-IN candidate(s). To vote for someone whose name is not printed on the ballot, use the blank “write-in” line on the ballot and either write in the name or paste on a sticker, then fill in the oval.
  • If you make a mistake or change your mind, DO NOT try to erase. Return your spoiled ballot and ASK an election official for a new ballot. If you make a mistake again, you may ask for another ballot.  Each voter may have up to 3 ballots.
  • To cast your voted ballot: either insert your voted ballot into the tabulator machine, or in a hand count town, insert it into the ballot box.
  • Go to the exit checklist table, if any, and state your name. Wait until your name is repeated and checked off by the official.
  • Leave the voting area immediately by passing outside the guardrail.
  • All voters who are in line at the polling place at 7p.m. will be permitted to vote. No voter can enter the polling place to vote after 7 p.m.
