HAVEN’T RECEIVED YOUR ABSENTEE BALLOT?
The Federal Write-In Absentee Ballot (FWAB) serves as a backup ballot for eligible military and overseas voters who requested an absentee ballot but haven’t received it in time to meet their state’s deadline.
If your official absentee ballot arrives after you’ve submitted the FWAB, FVAP says you can complete and return the official ballot as well. Your election office will count only one.
