City of Madison Absentee Ballot Drop Boxes Updated Ahead of Primary

With the August 13 primary election approaching, you may notice some activity around the City of Madison's 14 absentee ballot drop boxes this week.

The drop boxes, 13 of which are located outside of Madison Fire Stations and one at Elver Park, are getting a refreshed look. The new design is similar to the original look, featuring the City of Madison's flag, but has been updated to include the latest information on absentee voting.

The new drop box design also includes a QR code directing voters to the MyVote Wisconsin website, where they can track the status of their absentee ballot and ensure it has been collected by the City of Madison Clerk's Office.

While absentee voting for the August 13 primary election is underway, the drop boxes are not yet operational. The Clerk's Office will alert the public when the drop boxes are ready to accept ballots.
