The interim director of elections in Butler County is offering a few reminders for residents who use mail-in ballots for Election Day.
Wil White, who also serves as the county’s solicitor, says voters who are in other locations on Election Day but vote by mail, need to distinguish the difference between where you are residing and your permanent address.
For example, White said if you’re a snow bird who will be in Florida on Election Day, it’s important to note that your ballot needs to be sent to Florida instead of Butler. He says the Postal Service cannot forward ballots.
He encourages anyone who is facing a situation like this to visit the Elections office in the county government center and make the change.
White also expects that mail-in ballots will be sent out in early October—possibly during the first week of the month.
