Postal Voting Deadlines for Government Employees

The National Election Commission has set September 12 as the final day for government employees to cast their postal votes for the 2024 Presidential Election. Employees who missed earlier voting dates are encouraged to visit their district election offices or local Divisional Secretariats to cast their votes, as no further opportunities will be available on the election day, September 21. In Pennsylvania, a recent court ruling allows voters to cast provisional ballots if their mail ballots were rejected due to errors, paving the way for a state Supreme Court decision regarding mail ballot regulations. Meanwhile, absentee voting remains popular in Milwaukee, with over 24,500 absentee ballots returned in the recent primary election, although some rules around absentee voting have changed since the pandemic. Voters are reminded that absentee ballot requests must be made before September 19 to ensure timely processing. Identification is mandatory for postal voting, and officials will verify voters' identities to maintain election integrity.
