Don't be the person who just orders a cup of hot fudge, which is to say, a non-voter. Here's what you need to know before Election Day in the Green Mountain state.

SINCE YOU LAST VOTED…
Since 2020, there have been changes that will impact how you cast your ballot in Vermont. Here are the differences you should keep an eye on:
When making a plan to vote…
- Vermont now has an all-mail system for general elections. All eligible voters will be mailed a ballot without needing to request one.
When casting your vote…
- Drop boxes are now explicitly allowed, and outdoor and drive-up voting is now permitted statewide as well.
- You can no longer return the ballot of another voter if they are not an immediate family member.
