Federal Voting Assistance-Ellsworth AFB

The Federal Voting Assistance Program encourages all military service members, spouses, and their eligible family members to take advantage of the resources available at https://www.fvap.gov/military-voter to register and request absentee ballots to vote in the  U.S. elections.

Voters should complete a Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) each year to ensure they are able to participate in elections as military absentee voters. Send completed voting forms and ballots to your local election officials.

Many U.S. elections in the past 10 years have been decided by a margin of less than 0.1%. All states are required to count every absentee ballot as long as it is valid and reaches local election officials by the state’s deadline.

In addition, check out the FVAP links page at https://www.fvap.gov/links for resources that will help you research candidates and issues. You can also read national and hometown newspapers online and search the Internet for information.

To receive information by email about election dates and deadlines, subscribe to FVAP’s Voting Alerts at [email protected]. FVAP also shares Voting Alerts via Facebook and Twitter.
