This important information is worth repeating.
Here's how to vote by absentee ballot. If you go to City Hall, you can vote early, before election day.

If you will be out of town on July 22, or if you’d like to vote in advance, you have two options:
OPTION 1: BY MAIL
You can request an application for an absentee ballot by visiting City Hall in person or by calling the City Clerk’s office in City Hall at 410-289-8824, or you can download the application here: https://oceancitymd.gov/oc/departments/city-clerk/2025-ocean-city-municipal-special-election/
Fill out the application and mail it to the City Clerk’s office at P.O. Box 158, Ocean City, MD 21843, or take it to City Hall, 301 North Baltimore Avenue.
The ballot will be mailed to you.
After you fill out the ballot, return it by mail in the provided self-addressed, stamped envelope, or you can return it in person inside City Hall or place it in the white mailbox in front of City Hall.
