Military/Overseas Voters

Military personnel and their dependents temporarily living outside of Clark County, and Clark County residents temporarily living overseas should submit a "Registration and Absentee Ballot Request - Federal Post Card Application" (FPCA) instead of the standard Voter Registration Application. It is a combined Voter Registration Application and mail ballot request that eliminates the need to submit these items separately. The registration/mail ballot request is valid through the next two regularly scheduled general election for federal offices (e.g., 2004 and 2006). The FPCA is available from Voting Officers at military bases, U.S. embassies or consulates and the Election Department.

Absentee Voters

Any registered voter, for any reason, may request a mail ballot. The request must be IN WRITING. You may fax your request to the Election Department at (702) 455-2831. The request must be received on or before 5:00 p.m. on the Tuesday before election day.

First-time voters who did not provide I.D. when they registered must provide I.D. when they vote. If you did not provide identification when you registered and have not yet voted in a Clark County election:

• You must provide a copy of your I.D. when you request a mail ballot for the first time.
• If you do not include a copy of your I.D. with your mail ballot request, you may still submit it along with your voted mail ballot, inside the official return envelope.
  
• If you still do not provide a copy of your I.D. along with your voted mail ballot in State and Federal elections, your ballot will become a provisional ballot. Only your choices for federal offices, e.g. President, U.S. Senate and Congress, will be counted AND only if you submit a copy of your I.D. to the Election Department by 5:00 p.m. on the Friday after election day.
  
• If you never provide I.D., your ballot will not be counted.
