In almost all cases, you will need to sign up to vote by mail. The state won’t just mail you a ballot. Don't worry: we will walk you through it. There are only a handful of steps:

1. You submit an application to vote by mail.
2. Your Local Election Office processes your application.
3. Your Local Election Office sends your ballot to you.
4. You vote using the ballot and return it by the deadline.

1. Download the Nevada vote by mail application.
2. Fill out all of the required fields.
3. Print the application.
4. Sign and date your application. This is very important.
5. Mail or hand-deliver your completed application directly to your Local Election Office as soon as possible, but no later than the deadline.
6. If it’s close to the deadline, call your Local Election Office and see if they will let you submit your application via email or fax.
