Name
Address to which the ballot should be mailed
Signature
Copy of voter ID, if not already on file in Clerk’s Office

Send the request via email to jwicker@townwilson.com, or mail the request to:

Town Clerk’s Office
5935 S. Business Dr., Sheboygan, WI 53081

Ballots will be mailed out through the Thursday before the election. Absentee ballots must be received in the Clerk’s Office in time for delivery to the polls on Election Day.

Indefinitely Confined Absentee Ballot

The indefinitely confined category is fitting for voters who, for the foreseeable future, limit travel outside their home because of age, physical illness, or infirmity, or are disabled for an indefinite period. Each voter makes the decision of whether they are indefinitely confined based upon their current situation. Being indefinitely confined does not require permanent or total inability to travel outside of your home.

No copy or picture of your voter ID is needed if you apply for an absentee ballot in the indefinitely confined category. As an indefinitely confined absentee voter, you will continue to receive ballots for every election until you do not return a ballot, or you request to be removed from the indefinitely confined absentee list.

You can apply as an indefinitely confined absentee voter by printing out and mailing in this form:

My Vote Wisconsin  

Voters Temporarily Overseas

You may email your absentee request to jwicker@townwilson.com. Your request should include your name, the address at which you are registered to vote, and the email or street address to which we should send the ballot. If you haven’t already submitted a copy of your voter ID to the Clerk’s Office, you will need to include a picture or scan of your ID with your request.

Your ballot will be included in the first batch of ballots we mail out. For the fastest service, request that we send your ballot to an email address. Sign the certification statement and have an adult (18 or older) sign the certification as a witness. Your witness does not need to be a U.S. Citizen, but they will need to write their address under the witness signature. You will need to mail the absentee ballot, sealed in an envelope with the certification statement attached to the outside of the envelope.

The envelope bearing the certification statement should be sealed in a larger envelope bearing the words, “Absentee Ballot Enclosed.” Your name and ward number (found above your name on your absentee envelope) should be written legibly on the mailing envelope. We must receive your ballot by Election Day.

Absentee Delivery by Email – Available for Military and Overseas (both permanent & temporary) Voters Only

Military and Overseas Voters:  Be sure to include your name, address at which you are registered to vote, email address to which the ballot should be sent, and a copy or picture of your voter ID (if not already on file in the Clerk’s Office).

You will receive your ballot and absentee certification statement as attachments to an email message. You will need to print the ballot and certification statement on paper and send them back to the City Clerk’s Office through the mail. Absentee ballots must be received in the Clerk’s Office in time for delivery to the polls on Election Day.
