Voting by Absentee Ballot
以缺席/郵寄選票投票
Any registered voter may vote by absentee ballot. You do not need to be ill or "absent" to be an absentee voter.
任何已登記的選民都可用缺席/郵寄選票投票。您不須生病或不能出席投選才可成為缺席/郵寄選民。
No absentee ballots are issued on election day except to a voter who is a resident of a health care facility.
除非是發給現住療養院的選民，否則在選舉當日，選舉處是不會發出缺席/郵寄選票給任何選民的。
NOTE: Absentee ballots must be signed and postmarked or delivered to the King County Elections Office by election day. Voters may return their absentee ballots to their nearest polling place.
注意：缺席/郵寄選票信封上必須具有選民簽名，並在選舉日或之前已蓋上郵戳或遞送到金郡選舉處辦公室。選民亦可在選舉日把缺席/郵寄選票交回到附近的投票站。

Out of Country – Special Ballots/國外 – 特別選票
A "Special Ballot " is a special absentee ballot for voters residing or stationed outside of the Continental U.S. who believe they will be unable to vote a regular absentee ballot by normal mail delivery. Such voters may apply in writing to this office to receive a write-in ballot listing major offices and measures. These requests can be accepted starting ninety days before a general election. The special absentee ballot will be mailed as soon as possible after a request is received.
“特別選票”是一種特別缺席/郵寄選票，適用于那些相信他們不能以普通郵遞方式寄出其缺席/郵寄選票，及居住或駐守於美國國外的選民。此類選民可以書面向選舉處申請，索取一份列有主要職位及議案的自填選舉項目的選票。選舉處在選舉前90天即開始接受這些申請要求。收到申請通知後，選舉處將盡快寄出特別缺席/郵寄選票。
