Voting Methods

Absentee Voting
If you reside outside the six designated precincts or plan to be out of town on Election Day you have the opportunity to vote by absentee ballot. It is important that you have an updated address with the enrollment office. The Election board will be mailing gout a "Request for Absentee Ballot" form to all eligible voters. Once the election ballots are ready for the upcoming election and the Comanche Nation Election board has received your "Request for Absentee Ballot" form you will be mailed an absentee voter packet. To ensure your ABSENTEE VOTE will be counted you must read all instructions carefully and sign the certification form on the back of the return envelope.

Please call (580) 492 3274 to request a 2011 Absentee Ballot.
