Wake County voters who requested an absentee ballot must ensure their ballot is delivered to the Board of Elections Operations Center by 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 4. Absentee ballots cannot be returned at a polling place and a postmark does not establish timely delivery of a ballot returned after the deadline.
