RETURNING YOUR BALLOT
You can turn in your ballot by placing it in a voting center drop box, official ballot drop box-only site, or by mailing it through the United States Postal Service.
Early ballots must be returned by the voter, a family member, household member or designated caregiver according to Arizona state law (A.R.S. § 16-1005).
You can search for all of the locations in your area here.
Secure drop box-only sites are located at Wickenburg Town Hall, Scottsdale City Hall, Phoenix City Hall, Carefree Town Hall, Fountain Hills Town Hall, Gilbert Fire Administration Building, Glendale City Hall, Litchfield Park City Hall, Maricopa County Juvenile Court, Mesa City Hall, Peoria City Hall, Maricopa County Tabulation and Election Center, and Maricopa County Recorder’s Office.

ON ELECTION DAY
You can drop off your early ballot on Election Day at any voting center drop box.
Officials say, if you received your ballot by mail, you can still choose to vote in person if you have not already voted by mail. The election check-in system will cancel your mailed ballot if you vote in person. It also knows if voters have already cast a ballot by mail or in person.
