CLAY COUNTY VOTERS!!!

I have personally delivered your ballots to your local post office locations today. Your postmasters are working hard at sorting and preparing the ballots for delivery to you.

Keep your eyes open for an envelope just like this in your mail. As in the past - you can return your voted ballot in any of the following manners:
a) via mail (postage prepaid by Clay County);
b) via in-person to the County Clerk's office at the Clay County Courthouse (M-F 8am-4pm);
c) via the secure drop-box located in the parking lot on the South side of the Clay County Courthouse.

Also make sure you take the time to complete the Voter's Oath section of the ballot return envelope as Voter ID and Signature Verification are enforced in Clay County Elections.

REMEMBER that your ballot must be returned to us by 8:00pm CST May 12, 2026.

Please call our office at 402-762-3463 if you have any questions.

Thank you!
Cassie Aksamit,
Clay County Election Commissioner
