Absentee Voting Open for the April 4 General Municipal Election

ST. LOUIS CITY – Voters in the City of St. Louis who want to vote an absentee ballot for the April 4, 2023, General Municipal Election may do so at the Board of Election Commissioners, 300 N. Tucker Blvd., during regular office hours of 8:00 A.M. until 5:00 P.M., Monday through Friday. In addition, the Election Board will be open to the public the Saturday before the Election, April 1, from 9:00 A.M. until 1:00 P.M. The last day the Election Board can accept an absentee ballot application by mail is Wednesday, March 22. The last day to vote an absentee ballot in person is Monday, April 3, at 5:00 P.M., the day before the Election.

During the two-week period before April 4 (March 21 – April 3), “no excuse” absentee voting is available at the Election Board office, as well as at three libraries – Buder Library, 4401 Hampton Ave., Schlafly Library, 225 N. Euclid Ave., and Walnut Park Library, 5760 West Florissant Ave. Library hours are Monday, 12:00 P.M. – 4:00 P.M.; Tuesday and Wednesday, 12:00 P.M. – 6:00 P.M.; Thursday and Friday, 10:00 A.M. – 4:00 P.M.; and Saturday, 1:00 P.M. – 4:30 P.M. 

Although April 4 is a General Election, due to the passing of Proposition D in November, 2020, all candidates will be listed on the ballot without a party designation and voters will only be able to vote for one candidate for each office listed, except candidates for the Board of Education. Voters may vote for two Board of Education candidates, as well as a candidate to serve as a Trustee in Subdistrict 2 of the St. Louis Community College and two propositions.

Registered voters should start to receive their Notice of Election cards in the mail towards the end of the week of March 20. Voters are encouraged to review their Notice of Election card closely as some polling places may have changed.

Any voter who has any questions about their voter registration status should contact the Election Board at 314-622-4336. A sample ballot, as well as other helpful information, is available on the Board’s website .
