The Roanoke County Registrar’s Office has learned that many registered Roanoke County voters recently received a mailer containing an absentee ballot application. The mailer did not originate from the Roanoke County Registrar’s Office. The mailer came from an organization called Center for Voter Information in Washington, D.C. Citizens who wish to contact the Center for Voter Information with any concerns may call the organization at 866-377-7396.
If you have not already applied to vote using an absentee ballot in the November 3 General Election and wish to do so, you can complete the absentee ballot application form that was enclosed in the mailer. However, the Roanoke County Registrar’s Office cautions that the mailing address on the return envelope you received may be incorrectly addressed to the City of Roanoke (317 Kimball Ave.). If you choose to use the return envelope, completely mark out the mailing address and barcode on the envelope.
All applications for absentee ballots for Roanoke County registered voters should be mailed to the address below or delivered in person to the Roanoke County Registrar’s Office at 900 Chestnut Street, Vinton, VA 24179.
