The first is the voter registration deadline: that’s now Monday, May 4 by the end of the day. Hoosiers can register online at IndianaVoters.com.

That site is also where people can soon, entirely online, request an absentee vote-by-mail ballot. That option is available to all Hoosiers for this primary, due to the pandemic.
Voters must apply for that ballot by the end of the day on Thursday, May 21. And their vote-by-mail ballot must arrive at their county election office by noon on Election Day, June 2.
