Please be sure to contact your Election Administrator at the Election Office whenever there is a change of address. The FPCA can also be returned to county elections by mail if email is not available. Members of the military can also obtain an FPCA from their Voting Assistance Officer. Civilian overseas voters can obtain an FPCA from any U.S. embassy or consulate.
