If you haven’t received a ballot or need a new one, you still have time.
Friday, July 10, is the last day to request an early ballot.
This is especially important for registered Independents, who need to request either a Democratic or Republican ballot to vote by mail in the primary.
Other important deadlines to keep track of:
- July 10: Last day to request a replacement ballot by mail
- July 14: Last day to mail back your ballot
- July 17: Last day to vote early in-person
- July 21: Election Day
In Maricopa County, more than a dozen locations for in-person early voting. Several ballot drop box sites are also available across the county.
The Maricopa County website has a list of locations and hours of operation, which are subject to change.
There will be two 24-hour drop boxes at the Maricopa County election’s tabulation and election center in downtown Phoenix and its Mesa location.
