> HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY VOTE-BY-MAIL
> 
> The Montgomery County Board of Elections makes every effort to ensure that your ballot counts. If you do make a mistake, and you return your ballot in time, the staff of the Board of Elections will try to contact you to cure the issue.
> 
> The Board of Elections encourages you to cast your ballot as soon as possible and has some suggestions for steps that you may take to help the voting process go smoothly and ensure your right to vote.
> 
> OPEN VOTE-BY-MAIL BALLOT PACKET AND READ MATERIALS CAFEFULLY - Read the contests on the ballot and the information and forms sent with it carefully. Section 203 of the 1975 Voting Rights Act requires that voting materials and ballots in Montgomery County are printed in English and Spanish.
> VOTE YOUR BALLOT - Use a black or blue ball point pen. Do not use a sharpie or marker. This may likely bleed through to the other side of the ballot.
> ID MAY BE REQUIRED – Most voters do not need to provide ID to vote. If you do, the Board of Elections will let you know. A small percentage of voters may need to verify their driver’s license number or the last four digits of their Social Security Number or may be required to submit a copy of proper identification such as a Maryland driver’s license, Permit, MVA ID or official document including your name and address. You do not need to provide ID unless the words “ID REQUIRED” appear on your return envelope.
> IF YOU NEED HELP, SIGN AND RETURN THE ENCLOSED CERTIFICATION OF PERSON ASSISTING VOTER - If you need help voting your ballot, the person helping you must mark the ballot according to your wishes and cannot try to influence your vote. You may not be assisted by your employer or an agent of your employer or union. There is a form that any person helping you must complete and return with your voted ballot. It is called the Certification of Person Assisting Voter.
> USE REPLY ENVELOPE PROVIDED TO RETURN BALLOT - Place voted ballot into Postage Paid return envelope, along with any forms that apply to you, such as a Certification of Person Assisting Voter. If you choose to receive your ballot electronically, you will need to use your own envelope and pay for postage.
> SIGN, PRINT NAME & DATE VOTER OATH - Sign and date the Voter’s Oath on the back of the return envelope or it will not be counted. To protect the health of election workers, we encourage you to seal the envelope with a wet sponge or cloth. You can also use a piece of tape. “Whether healthy or sick, please don’t lick.”
> RETURN YOUR BALLOT - No postage is necessary. We strongly encourage all voters to fill out their ballot and mail it as soon as possible. Voters who wait to drop off their ballot until Primary Election Day, July 19, should use a Board of Elections drop box to prevent any delay in having your ballot postmarked. If you use U.S. Mail, your ballot must be postmarked by July 19. Post offices generally close by 5PM. If you use a drop box, your ballot must be in the box by 8PM, Primary Election Day, on July 19. You can find the nearest Board of Election ballot drop box by texting the word BOX plus Zip Code (Example: BOX 20879) to 77788 or by visiting 777vote.org. To request a Mail-in ballot, text VBM to 77788 or visit 777vote.org. Request deadline to receive Mail-in ballot by mail is July 12, 2022.

> COMO VOTAR CON ÉXITO POR CORREO
> 
> La Junta Electoral del Condado de Montgomery hace todo lo posible para garantizar que su papeleta cuente. En las elecciones primarias de 2020, menos de una décima parte del uno por ciento de las papeletas electorales puntuales fueron rechazadas por cualquier motivo. Si comete un error y devuelve su papeleta a tiempo, el personal de la Junta Electoral intentará comunicarse con usted para solucionar el problema.
> 
> La Junta Electoral lo alienta emitir su voto lo antes posible y tiene algunas sugerencias sobre los pasos que puede tomar para ayudar a que el proceso de votación se desarrolle sin problemas y garantizar su derecho a votar.
> 
>  ABRA EL PAQUETE ELECTORAL Y LEA LOS MATERIALES CUIDADOSAMENTE - Revise las contiendas que aparecen en su papeleta, lea la información y formularios enviados cuidadosamente. La Sección 203 de la Ley de Derecho al Votante de 1975 requiere que los materiales de votación y las papeletas en el Condado de Montgomery se impriman en inglés y español.
> VOTE SU PAPELETA - Use un bolígrafo negro o azul. No use un marcador. Es probable que esto marque el otro lado de la papeleta.
> SE PUEDE REQUERIR IDENTIFICACIÓN – La mayoría de los votantes no necesitan presentar una identificación para votar. Si lo hace, la Junta Electoral se lo informará. Un pequeño porcentaje de votantes puede necesitar verificar su número de licencia de conducir o los últimos cuatro dígitos de su Número de Seguro Social, o se le puede solicitar que presente una copia de la identificación adecuada, como una licencia de conducir de Maryland, un permiso, una identificación de la MVA o un documento oficial que incluya su nombre y dirección. No es necesario que proporcione una identificación a menos que las palabras " ID REQUIRED " aparezcan en el sobre de devolución.
> SI NECESITA AYUDA, FIRME Y DEVUELVA LA CERTIFICACIÓN ADJUNTA DE PERSONA QUE ASISTE AL VOTANTE - Si necesita ayuda para votar su papeleta, la persona que lo ayude debe marcar su papeleta de acuerdo con sus deseos y no puede influir en su voto. Usted no puede ser asistido por su empleador o un agente de su empleador o sindicato. Hay un formulario que cualquier persona que le ayude debe completar y devolver con su papeleta votada. Se llama Certificación de la Persona que Asiste al Votante.
> UTILICE EL SOBRE DE DEVOLUCIÓN PROPORCIONADO PARA DEVOLVER SU PAPELETA - Coloque su papeleta electoral en el sobre de reenvío. No es necesario poner estampillas en el sobre. Incluya una copia de su identificación, solo si es necesario, junto con cualquier formulario que se aplique a usted, como una Certificación de Persona Que Asiste al Votante. Si elige recibir su papeleta en forma electrónica, deberá usar su propio sobre y pagar el franqueo.
> FIRME, PONGA SU NOMBRE Y FECHA EN EL JURAMENTO DE VOTANTE – Completar y firmar la Declaración Jurada de Votante y enviarlo junto a su papeleta de votante o firme el juramento que aparece en ingles en la parte posterior del sobre de retorno o su papeleta no se contará. Para proteger la salud de los trabajadores electorales, le recomendamos que selle el sobre con una esponja húmeda o un paño. También puede utilizar un pedazo de cinta. "Ya sea sano o enfermo, por favor no lame el sobre."
> DEVUELVE SU PAPELETA - No es necesario poner estampillas en el sobre. A todos los votantes que completen sus papeletas y las envíen por correo postal tan pronto como sea posible. Por favor, no espere a devolver su papeleta. Votantes que esperan a dejar su papeleta hasta el día de las elecciones deben usar un buzón de la Junta Electoral para evitar cualquier retraso. Si utiliza el correo postal, el sobre conteniendo su papeleta debe estar marcada con un matasellos antes del 19 de julio. Las oficinas de correos generalmente cierran a las 5 p.m. Si utiliza un buzón electoral, su papeleta debe estar en la casilla antes de las 8 PM del 19 de julio. La Junta Electoral del Condado de Montgomery actualmente tiene buzones para depositar papeletas. Para encontrar el buzón de entrega de papeleta más cercano envié un mensaje de texto con la palabra BUZON más el código postal (Ejemplo: BUZON 20879) al 77788 o visitando 777vote.org.
