Jefferson County voters who would like to return their voted ballots in the mail will need to use a first-class (44 cent) postage stamp. 

“We have worked closely with the United States Postal Service to ensure that, in most cases, all you need is a regular postage stamp to get your ballot back to us via the U.S. Mail,” said Pam Anderson, Jefferson County Clerk and Recorder.

Anderson noted that even ballots mailed with insufficient postage will be delivered and counted.

Voters who would prefer to drop their ballots off in person may do so at any of the eleven designated drop-off sites throughout Jefferson County. Those sites are:
