St. Louis City Voters Face March 25 Mail-In Ballot Deadline | The Locally Times
St. Louis City voters must request mail-in ballots by March 25 for the April 7 election; in-person absentee voting began March 24.
## St. Louis City Board of Election Commissioners, the deadline for voters to request a mail-in ballot is March 25, 2026, for the April 7 General Municipal Election. The provided records do not specify the process for obtaining a ballot application. Completed mail-in ballots must be received by the election board by 7 p.m. on Election Day, April 7. The election board’s calendar also shows the deadline to register to vote for this election has already passed, on March 11, 2026. In-person voters on Election Day must also be in line by 7 p.m. to cast a ballot. ## In-Person Absentee Voting The St. Louis City Board of Election Commissioners offers in-person absentee voting, which began on March 24, 2026. The final day for any in-person absentee voting is April 6, 2026. A notice from the election board identifies this as the last day for both types of absentee voting. Public records do not provide a detailed definition distinguishing the two types but confirm the voting window ends April 6. ## Other Area Municipal Elections Public records show several other area municipalities are also holding elections on April 7, 2026, including Webster Groves, Town and Country, Des Peres, Crestwood, Sunset Hills, Overland, and Arnold. For example, records from the City of Webster Groves indicate a vote for Mayor and three Council Members, while Crestwood voters will consider four proposed City Charter amendments. These municipalities, many of which are outside St. Louis City, have their own election authorities. The available documents do not provide a consolidated guide for voters across the region, so residents outside St. Louis City should confirm deadlines and procedures with their local election officials.
