Missouri absentee voting begins for 2022 midterm election

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The 2022 general election is six weeks away, which means Missouri has opened absentee voting.

If you already know you won’t be able to make it to the polls in November, Missouri allows absentee voting starting Tuesday, in person or by mail.

The state says residents can vote absentee if they:

• Will be absent from your voting jurisdiction on Election Day.
• Are incapacitated or confined due to illness or physical disability, or caring for an incapacitated person.
• Are restricted by religious belief or practice.
• Are employed by an election authority.
• Are incarcerated, but have retained all your voting qualification.
• Are a participant in the Missouri SAFE at home program.
