It’s that time of year again! Election Day is near, which means Americans only have a few more weeks to make their decisions about who to vote for. Voting is a privilege and civic duty that we shouldn’t take for granted. However, sometimes it’s inconvenient to vote, especially if you’re out of town a lot and working a job that keeps you on the road. For medical professionals staying in travel nurse housing, it can be overwhelming to take care of everything that needs done each week. If you’re a traveling nurse or doctor, read on for how to vote this year.
How can I vote if I’m out of town?
What’s the best way to vote when you’re traveling or away from home on Election Day? Simple answer…absentee ballot. But don’t wait until November to start thinking about voting. You’ll need to plan ahead in order to get a ballot in the mail.
First of all, you’ll need to know your permanent home address. That is the state you’ll vote in. This may not be Louisiana, especially if you’re from another state such as New York or Kentucky. Then, research your home state’s election guidelines, since each state may have different deadlines and specifics. If you’re not registered to vote, you’ll need to take care of that and request a ballot in the mail. Once received, fill it out and send!
