UOCAVA Ballot Requests Due October 31
Saturday, October 31, 2026 · District of Columbia, DC
Military and overseas voters covered by UOCAVA have until Saturday, October 31, to request a ballot for the District's November 3 general election. The Board of Elections calendar identifies this as the deadline for UOCAVA ballot requests, three days before Election Day. The same calendar lists separate deadlines for other voter groups, including non-UOCAVA ballot requests and voter registration updates. Eligible military and overseas voters should review the Board's current instructions and submit requests early enough to account for transmission and return requirements.
