Absentee ballot applications for the 2021 city election will be available to Tuscaloosa registered voters beginning Feb. 1. Applications can be obtained at Tuscaloosa City Hall, or printed online at elections.tuscaloosa.com.
 
“We want to assist in this process in any way possible to ensure that every citizen in the City of Tuscaloosa who can vote, is able to vote,” City Clerk Carly Standridge said.
 
An information table will be set up at the skybridge entrance to City Hall to assist citizens with information regarding the election and provide absentee applications if needed.
 
Once an application is complete, it should be mailed along with a copy of the registered voters driver’s license to P.O. Box 2089, Tuscaloosa, AL 35403. If mailed in, the City Clerk will mail the ballot and all instructions needed to the registered address. The ballot must be completed, notarized or witnessed and returned prior to the election.
 
Additionally, in-person absentee voting will be held at City Hall in the City Clerk’s Office Feb.1 - March 1. Voters may bring the completed application and driver’s license to the election information desk between 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. where they will be escorted to the Clerk’s Office to vote. 
 
Deadline to submit applications is Feb. 25. Absentee ballots will be accepted until March 1, at 5:00 p.m.
