EASTON, MARYLAND — The Talbot County Board of Elections will hold its next public mail-in ballot canvass Monday, Oct. 19, at 10 a.m., the second mail-in canvass on a posted calendar that runs through a post-election audit in late November.
The board's public notice, dated Sept. 25, lists each session for the Nov. 3 general election at its office, 215 Bay Street, Suite 7, in Easton. The board asks anyone who plans to attend a session to call 410-770-8099 first.
The first mail-in canvass was scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 13. Results from the early sessions will not be released until after 8 p.m. on Election Day, the notice says.
From Election Day on, the schedule continues with:
- Nov. 3, 2 p.m.: early voting results canvass, followed at 8 p.m. by the selection of precincts for post-election verification and audits.
- Nov. 5, 10 a.m.: another mail-in ballot canvass.
- Nov. 12, 10 a.m.: provisional ballot canvass and mail-in ballot canvass II.
- Nov. 13, 10 a.m.: mail-in ballot canvass II and certification of the election.
- Nov. 18, 9:30 a.m.: post-certification canvass.
- Nov. 24, 10 a.m.: risk-limiting audit.
Documentation from the board's logic and accuracy testing, a pre-election check of voting equipment, was scheduled to be available for public inspection Oct. 9.
Voters who still want a mail-in ballot sent by mail or fax must have the request received by Oct. 27, according to the Maryland State Board of Elections. Requests for a ballot delivered by email are due online by Oct. 30. Completed ballots can go in an official drop box by 8 p.m. on Election Day or be mailed with a postmark on or before Nov. 3.
