What does it mean by this is a “By Mail” Election?

After partnering with the Municipality of Anchorage for two years to conduct our local Vote By Mail Elections using their Election Center, the CBJ Assembly appropriated funds and a portion of CBJ’s Thane Warehouse was converted into the Juneau Ballot Processing Center (BPC). In January 2023, the Assembly directed staff to make by mail voting permanent. Below is a brief explanation of how CBJ conducts the by mail election process:

  • Rather than having to go to a precinct polling place on Election Day, ballot packages will be mailed to all Juneau registered voters two and a half weeks prior to the Election Day which falls on the first Tuesday of every October.
  • Ballots are mailed to the voter’s mailing address on file with the State of Alaska Division of Election.
  • 2 weeks prior to Election Day, ballot drop boxes are placed in two locations in the Juneau area and two Vote Centers are open for various hours Monday through Friday depending on location along with limited Saturday options/hours as well as on Election Day from 7am-8pm.
  • Voters can return their fully voted ballot in the return envelope provided at any time during that 2 week window via Secure Drop Box, at one of two Vote Centers, or via USPS.
  • Individuals who chose to mail their ballots back are required to affix the necessary postage and are encouraged to take the ballot to a USPS office and witness them placing a postmark on the return ballot envelope. A mailed ballot must be postmarked by Election Day, October 4 and meet all signature review criteria before it can be considered eligible for counting.
  • Ballots received after Election Day without a postmark or with an illegible postmark will be rejected.

When did CBJ first consider by mail voting? 

  • In 2007, the Assembly changed the Election Code to allow for elections to be conducted by mail.
  • In 2020, CBJ partnered with the Municipality of Anchorage to conduct the regular election by mail due to the pandemic. Due to its success and increased voter turnout, CBJ decided to conduct the 2021 Regular Municipal Election in the same way.
  • In 2021, the CBJ Assembly appropriated funds for the creation of the new CBJ Ballot Processing Center and passed a motion on April 25, 2022 to conduct the October 4, 2022 as a By Mail Eleciton.
  • In January 2023, the CBJ Assembly directed staff to draft an ordinance making by mail voting the default method for conducting CBJ elections. Those code changes are presently going through the Assembly processes.

What should I do if I receive someone else’s ballot?

If you happen to receive a ballot that is not addressed to you or anyone in your household,  cross out the address listed on the ballot and write “NOT AT THIS ADDRESS”. Do not open the ballot. Place the unopened ballot back in the mail as a “Return to Sender”. This will notify CBJ staff and eventually, the State of Alaska Division of Elections Office that the voter does not reside at that address.

I’ve already mailed my ballot or dropped it off in the drop box, is there anything I can do to change my vote now?

Once you’ve turned in or mailed your ballot, it is considered cast and it cannot be re-voted. If you have already mailed in or deposited your ballot at one of the drop boxes or vote centers, we cannot issue you a replacement ballot.

I’ve already filled out my ballot but not yet mailed it. Now I want to change how I marked the ballot, can I get a replacement ballot?

If you have not yet sent in your voted ballot and want to destroy the ballot you received in the mail and be issued a replacement ballot, take your by mail ballot to one of our two Vote Centers (dates/times/locations will be listed on our website at https://juneau.org/clerk/elections) and they can destroy that ballot and issue you a replacement. Vote Center issued ballots must be voted at the Vote Center and cannot be removed from the Vote Center for voting at a later time.

If there were a replacement issued from a vote center, but your initial ballot was already mailed, only the first ballot received would count and any subsequent ballot would be rejected. In addition to that, the Voter Certification that you sign on your ballot return envelope states that you will not vote in any other manner in this election and has legal penalties for falsely signing the declaration.

Should you have any questions, please give us a call at the M-F 8am-4:30pm at 586-5278.

What happens if someone requests a “replacement” ballot and tries to vote twice?

Ballot envelopes are assigned a unique barcode for each individual voter. Upon return, only one ballot envelope from any voter is accepted – the first one in. Others are rejected. Ballots in an envelope with no barcode are rejected. Voting more than once in the same election, with the intent that your vote be counted more than once, is voter misconduct in the first degree under Alaska Statutes 15.56.040. Voter misconduct in the first degree is a class C felony.

What happens if someone intercepts my mail and votes my ballot?

When voting a ballot, you will be required to sign the Voter Certification and place a personal identifier (DOB, AKDL, Voter ID#, or last 4 digits of SSN) on the return ballot envelope.

If you are casting your ballot at a Vote Center, you will be asked to show ID to verify your identity.

If the ballot is returned via mail or drop box, your signature on the return ballot envelope is compared to your signatures already on file with the State of Alaska – e.g. your registration document, prior election materials, motor vehicle transactions, PFD application, etc.

Election officials who adjudicate signatures are trained with techniques used to identify matches and forgeries. If two trained election officials agree that the signature doesn’t match, you will be contacted by mail and provided an opportunity to cure the discrepancy.

If I move and forget to update my voter registration, will my ballot be mailed to my old address and will someone else be able to vote it?

Your Vote By Mail ballot is not forwarded to your new address. As mentioned above, the identification of the voter voting a ballot is verified either at a Vote Center or via signature review process. If you move, forget to update your voter registration, and don’t receive your ballot in the mail, you can call 907-586-5278 or print the application from the website at www.juneau.org/elections to request an application for a ballot package to be mailed to a temporary address. Alternatively, you may go to a Juneau Vote Center to vote a by mail ballot package in person. You will be required to provide identification and a signature so we can verify your identity. When a new ballot package is issued to you, your previous ballot package will be voided, which is another way for election officials to tell that if it is returned, it wasn’t voted by you.

What if I moved out of Juneau and forgot to update my voter registration?
You will need to cancel your voter registrations through the State of Alaska/Division of Elections, they oversee the voter rolls. https://www.elections.alaska.gov/Core/cancelyouralaskavoterregistration.php or call the Division of Elections at 907-465-3021 or toll-free: 1-866-948-8683.

Can I vote by fax or email?

Yes. You must apply to vote by fax or electronic transmission. Print the application from the website at www.juneau.org/clerk/elections or call the CBJ Election Center at 907-586-5278 or send an email to [email protected] to request an application for a Fax/e-ballot. Complete and return the application to CBJ Elections by 5:00 p.m. AKDT on October 2, 2023. Instructions are included with the application. Applications received after this date will not be processed.

What if I make a mistake while marking my ballot?

The ballot packet contains instructions about how to correct mistakes while marking your ballot. If you make a mistake on your ballot, you can request a replacement ballot from the Vote Center or you can correct it by striking through the oval and the candidate’s name or proposition answer that you do not want to vote for and filling in the oval beside the candidate or proposition you do wish to vote for write next to it “Valid vote for Candidate Name” or “Valid vote for “(Yes or No)” on Prop 1.”

How do I find information on becoming a Candidate?

  • The candidate filing period will be open from 8am on Friday, July 14 through 4:30p.m. on Monday, July 24, 2023. Individuals interested in running for elected office are encouraged to attend and read the resources for the How to Run for Local Office Workshop webpage by clicking on the links from this Election webpage.
  • A list of Certified Candidates will be posted to the website as each candidate packet is certified.
  • Certified Candidates have the opportunity to post an optional Candidate Profile on this webpage and profiles are linked to the name of each candidate who chose to submit one. If any write-in candidates file to run, their name will be listed on the candidate webpage but they do not have the option to submit an online Candidate Profile.
  • Other information about candidates will likely be available on a variety of local media websites as well as the candidate’s webpages, if they have one.
  • Anyone wishing to run as a write in candidate has to file a Notice of Intent to be a Write-In Candidate form with the Municipal Clerk a minimum of 7 days prior to Election Day.
  • Election workers are not at liberty to discuss people or issues on the ballot, including the names of any write-in candidates, but election workers can direct voters to the Candidate webpage for a list of those candidates who may become certified as write-in candidates.

When will election results be available?

Preliminary “unofficial” results will be posted no earlier than the close of polls at 8pm on Election Day and updated periodically during the review of the returns until the Canvass Review Board and the Election Official certifies the election between October 17-19.

All ballot return envelopes will be processed at the CBJ Ballot Processing Center and we hope to post prelimiary/unofficial results after the close of the polls on Election Day. Addtional processing and review of ballots received by mail, at the Vote Centers, and through the Ballot Drop Boxes up to 8pm on Election Day will continue to take place from October 4 through certification by the Canvass Review Board which is scheduled to begin work on Monday, October 16.

Voter Assistance available.  Municipal Clerk/Election staff is available to provide voter assistance with voter registration and/or answer election questions. Please contact the CBJ Clerk’s office at 586-5278 for assistance.

Where is the new Juneau Ballot Processing Center located?

The new City and Borough of Juneau Ballot Processing Center (BPC) is in a grey warehouse located at 1325 Eastaugh Way which is located just off of Thane Road and behind the tour bus parking lot.
