Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft is traveling the state to get the message out about the different ways to vote this year – in person, by absentee, and the new mail-in voting option.
During a visit with reporters in Jefferson City, Ashcroft says his office is working on a list of organizations that have agreed to provide notarization for free for mail-in and absentee ballots.
Due to COVID-19, all registered Missouri voters can vote by mail, if requested and the ballot envelope must be notarized. Absentee voters can cast a ballot without a notary if they are ill, if they have COVID-19 or are at risk of getting the virus due to certain health problems.
