Secretary of State announces release of general election sample ballots

Secretary of State Wes Allen has announced that sample ballots for the general election on Nov. 5 are available on www.AlabamaVotes.gov.

“Sample ballots for all 67 counties have been made publicly available on our website, www.AlabamaVotes.gov. I would encourage all Alabamians to review these sample ballots as they get ready to head to the polls on November 5.” Allen said in an email on Monday. 

The email detailed the features on the website for visitors as they prepare to vote.

“At www.AlabamaVotes.gov, Alabamians can register to vote with a valid Alabama driver license, verify their voter registration status, check their polling location, and track their absentee ballot,” Allen explained. “My team and I work very hard to ensure that our website is a functional tool for all Alabamians to utilize as they prepare to go vote on November 5.”

On election day polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Valid photo IDs are required to cast ballots. 

“As a former probate judge, I know firsthand how much preparation goes into running a fair, secure, and transparent election. I want to thank the county probate judges and election officials for working hard to create and review sample ballots for their counties, so that Alabama voters can be informed and prepared for Election Day,” Allen said.
