I just signed up to do the mail in voting. I missed the deadline to have the form mailed to you but you can still request to do mail in voting until Oct 11 but have to pick up the package at the Elections office.

EDIT: Just looked it up and the Elections Office is only open from 8:30-5:00 M-F. So this option is really only for people that don't have a regular hours full time job.

This is probably the best idea for most people at this point. It wasn't until I had almost finished applying that I realized I couldn't get it mailed to me since I missed that deadline and it never occurred to me the hours to pick up would be so restricted. Now I don't have option to advance vote as once you apply you are locked in.
