Early Voting and Vote by Mail
Carpenters are busy. It is that simple. That means we get up early in the morning and work overtime until late in the day and may not be able to find the time to vote on Election Day. If you want to absolutely make sure you are able to vote, consider voting early or using a vote by mail option. Unfortunately, not all of our states have laws in place yet to vote early. Options on if or how you can get your vote in and not have to worry about missing any work are below.
