It is important to note there have been a few changes in voting options (compared to the August and November 2020 elections), especially in regards to absentee voting. These changes include:

• Mail-In Ballots no longer exist. The only option for voting via mail is absentee voting.
• The COVID reason for absentee voting no longer exists. Voters will have to choose from one of the following six reasons:
  • Absent from St. Louis County on Election Day;
  • Incapacitated or confined due to sickness or disability, including caring for a person who is incapacitated or confined due to sickness or disability;
  • Restricted by religious belief or practice;
  • Employed by an election authority;
  • Incarcerated, although all necessary qualifications for voting have been retained;
  • A participant in the Missouri Safe at Home program

If a voter does not meet one of the six reasons listed above, he/she will only be able to cast their vote in-person at a polling place on Election Day. The absentee ballot application is available at www.stlouiscovotes.com and must be submitted no later than 5 p.m. on Wednesday, March 24.
