I don’t have real-time access to current election details in this turn. Based on the latest general guidance, here’s how you can quickly check what’s on Alabama ballots today and how to vote: What to expect on today’s Alabama ballot

  • Municipal races: Many Alabama cities hold city council, mayor, school board, and related local offices on odd-year cycles, often in nonpartisan contests.
  • Special elections: There can be special elections for state or local offices if a vacancy exists, or for school boards and local referendums.
  • Ballot types: Depending on your locality, ballots may include nonpartisan municipal races, local referendums, or special district measures.

How to confirm precisely what’s on your ballot

  • Visit your Secretary of State’s “Alabama Votes” page or the county elections office site for up-to-date, locale-specific information.
  • Check your polling place and sample ballot: most counties provide a sample ballot online that lists every race and measure you’ll vote on.
  • Use official voter information portals:
    • Alabama Secretary of State’s election information pages for 2025 election details and deadlines.
    • Local county election websites (e.g., for your county) often publish sample ballots, candidate lists, and referendum texts.
  • If you’re voting absentee or need to know registration status, verify deadlines and eligibility on official sites, since Alabama often has strict timelines for registration and ballot requests.

Voting options and deadlines (general guidance)

  • Registration: Ensure you’re registered correctly for your precinct. Alabama has specific registration cutoffs and proof-of-residency requirements.
  • In-person voting: Most Alabama counties offer in-person voting on Election Day; some may provide early in-person options depending on local rules.
  • Absentee voting: Check if you qualify for absentee voting and the required deadlines to request and return the ballot.
  • Provisional ballots: If there are any questions about eligibility at your polling place, you may be offered a provisional ballot pending verification.

If you’d like, specify your county or city in Alabama, and I can guide you to the exact pages that list today’s races, sample ballots, and deadlines.
