You may vote a provisional ballot if you meet specific conditions.

The Help America Vote Act of 2002 (HAVA) establishes the right for a voter to cast a provisional ballot if:

  • Voter's name does not appear on the official list of registered voters; or
  • An election official asserts that the voter is not eligible to vote.

CASTING A PROVISIONAL BALLOT: A voter is permitted to cast a provisional ballot upon completing a written affirmation stating that the individual is:

  • A registered voter in the jurisdiction in which the individual desires to vote; and
  • Eligible to vote in that election.

The Clerk's Office will determine if a provisional ballot is to be counted in accordance with State Law. The voter will be able to verify if the ballot did or did not count, and if it was not counted, the reason why can be found by calling a toll-free number provided or through the Office of Elections website at elections.hawaii.gov.
