Electronic Voting System Project For Overseas U.S. Citizens



Attention U.S. citizen voters:

    The following 25 states, or parts of these states, are participating in an Electronic Voting System project: Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, Utah, Washington, and West Virginia.
    If you vote in one of these states/counties, you should follow the instructions and use all of the voting options available to you through www.FVAP.gov .  Many of these state tools allow you to use a full ballot reflecting all contests (federal, state, and local).  Follow the instructions for returning the voted ballot.
    If you subsequently receive your blank state ballot from your state after submitting the online ballot, you should vote and return the state ballot immediately.  The state ballot will take priority over the electronic voting project ballot if both are received by the state deadline.
    If you have already received, voted, and returned your state ballot, you should not participate in this project. If you have questions about this project, or about voting, please contact the voting assistance officer at American Embassy, Belmopan, Ashley Barriner-Byrd, Tel. 501 822 4011 ext. 4219.
