To be counted in the election, an absentee ballot must be postmarked or electronically submitted on or before election day and be received by the Clerk no later than noon the Tuesday following the election. Ballot envelopes received after the Canvassing Board has completed absentee ballot counting shall not be opened, but shall be marked “invalid” with the date of receipt noted thereon. Such envelopes shall be retained with the other election records and destroyed with them as provided by the City’s records retention schedule. Absentee ballot envelopes shall be examined by the Canvassing Board who shall determine whether the absentee voter is qualified to vote at the election or whether the ballot has been properly cast.
