Louisiana has redesigned its absentee voting envelopes with larger print and easier-to-read instructions, Secretary of State Nancy Landry announced Wednesday. They will be available for the Oct. 11 election.
Voters who have requested an absentee ballot for the upcoming election should expect to see these redesigned envelopes in the coming days, according to a news release from Landry’s office.
“These envelopes will ensure that voters more clearly understand how to vote absentee-by-mail while maintaining the stringent election security measures Louisiana deserves and expects,” Landry said.
The Secretary of State’s Office produced the following video that explains how to vote absentee by mail using these new envelopes.
Voters with any questions should contact the Secretary of State’s Elections Division at (800) 883-2805 or their parish registrar of voters office.
