Registered voters wanting to vote by mail may request a ballot by completing the Absentee Request Form and mailing it to Orange County Board of Elections, PO Box 220, Hillsborough, NC, 27278.
Requests may also be made through the NC State Board of Elections’ Online Absentee Ballot Request Portal.
Deadline for returning an Absentee Ballot
Absentee by mail ballots (returned by mail or in person) must be received in the Orange County Board of Elections office by 7:30 pm on Election Day in order to be eligible to be counted.
