Early Mail-In and Absentee Voting
The Library will maintain a list of Early Mail-In and Absentee voters moving forward. Ballots will be sent to the address on file each year. Even if you are registered for Early Mail-In or Absentee with the Schuyler County Board of Elections, it does not mean you are registered for the Watkins Glen Public Library’s annual vote. The Library operates separately.
Residents of the school district who wish to apply for Early Mail-In and Absentee voting should use the forms below. Paper copies of these forms are available at the Circulation Desk. You can submit these at any time.
