Early vote

Last Updated April 27, 2023

Due to the revision of the Public Office Election Law (enforced on December 1, 2003), among the conventional absentee voting system, the early voting system was used as a voting method before the election date (voting date) in the municipalities where the list was registered. There is.

●Voting subject to early voting
Voting at early polling places such as ward offices set up by the Election Commission of each ward (ward to live) registered in the electoral list

●You can vote early
・If you have a job or school on the voting day
・When going out on the voting day, such as leisure or travel
・When walking is difficult due to illness, childbirth, physical disability, etc.
●Early polling place of each ward (please be careful about voting start date, voting time.)
If you are unable to go to the polling place on the voting day due to work or leisure, please use the early voting system.
At the time of election, we will send you a "voting guide", so please bring it with you when it arrives. (You can vote without "voting guidance".)
●Procedures simplified by the early voting system
As with the day of the voting day, you can now vote directly in the ballot box.

  1. Statement on invoices and oaths
    When voting, as in the case of conventional absentee voting, it is necessary to submit an oath on the voting day that is expected to apply to certain reasons such as work or business.
    You don't need a private seal ID card.
  2. Submission of invoices and oaths to the reception
    After collating with the electoral list, you will receive a ballot.
  3. Please fill out the ballot on the entry table.
  4. I'll post it to the ballot box.

●The absentee voting system (voting with double envelopes) remains.

□Absentee voting can be performed at the municipal election committee where you stay, designated hospitals, nursing homes, etc.
Voting in municipalities not registered in the electoral list
Voting at facilities such as hospitals and nursing homes

□Persons with certain severe physical disabilities or those who need nursing care 5 can vote for absentees by mail at home.
Absentee voting by mail

□Reception of absentee voting for those living in other cities is performed at each ward office (ward Election Commission).
