发帖数: 42 | 2 Seven states allow voters to resubmit mail-in ballots after they have
already sent them in to be counted, according to 37 out of 50 state election
officials who responded to inquires from Fox News.
The laws allow residents in seven states who have already voted for select
candidates by mail to change their minds, usually within a specific time
frame after the first ballot has been cast. In some states, voters can
resubmit ballots several times.
Arkansas
In Arkansas, voters can resubmit absentee ballots up to two times.
Connecticut
Connecticut voters may withdraw previously submitted absentee ballots from
their town clerks until 5 p.m. on the Friday before Election Day.

Voters can "then either vote in person in a polling place or fill out a new
application for an absentee ballot," a Connecticut election official told
Fox News.
Delaware
Voters in Delaware can contact their county elections office if they wish to
make a change to their submitted absentee ballots.
"If a voter has already returned their voted absentee or vote-by-mail ballot
, and then wish to make a change, the voter should contact their county
elections office as soon as possible to determine if this will be feasible,"
a spokesperson for State Election Commissioner Anthony Albence said.
Michigan
In Michigan, voters wishing to change their mail-in ballots must submit
written requests to their city or town clerks.

Minnesota
In Minnesota, voters can change their absentee votes as long as they do so
at least 14 days prior to Election Day.
"You can ask to cancel your ballot until the close of business two weeks
before Election Day," the state's website reads. "After that time, you
cannot cancel your ballot. To cancel your ballot, contact the election
office that sent your ballot. Your options are to have a new ballot mailed;
vote in person at your local election office; or vote at your polling place
on Election Day."
Wisconsin
Wisconsin voters can resubmit mail-in ballots if they do so on time.

"If you need a new ballot, contact your municipal clerk as soon as possible.
If there’s enough time, your clerk can cancel your original ballot and
give you a new one," the state's website reads. "Depending on how close you
are to Oct. 29 -- the legal deadline for requesting absentee ballots by mail
-- you might need to get your new ballot in person."
New Hampshire
The process is a bit trickier in New Hampshire, where those who voted by
mail can vote again if they show up to a polling place within the first hour
it's open or before their absentee ballots are processed.
Other states allow residents to withdraw their mail-in ballots and vote in-
person on Election Day, including Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Mississippi,
Pennsylvania and New Mexico. Some of these states require voters to sign an
affidavit canceling their absentee ballots before voting in person.
