HONOLULU (HI Now) - Voting in Hawaii is no longer a single day event. Registered voters now have an extended window to make their voices heard, and every ballot comes directly to you.
Chief Election Officer Scott Nago with the Office of Elections shares how this vote from home system lets you research candidates, fill out your ballot in comfort and return it on your schedule.
Sign up for the free ballot tracking service at elections.hawaii.gov to receive email, text or phone alerts when your ballot is mailed and when your voted ballot is accepted for counting.
Before you vote, explore the digital voter guide at elections.hawaii.gov for candidate statements, photos, contact information and clear explanations of proposed amendments to the Hawaii State Constitution and County Charters.
When you are ready, sign the return envelope and return your ballot by mail or to a ballot drop box by 7 p.m. on Tuesday, November 3. If you make a mistake, do not use whiteout. Request a replacement through your County Elections Division with instructions printed on your ballot or online.

Ballots for the General Election have been mailed, so contact your County Elections Division if your packet has not arrived.
