Indiana voters have until Oct. 22 to request an absentee ballot, which must be received by their county clerk's office no later than 12 p.m. on Election Day, Nov. 3, to be counted.

Because of the coronavirus pandemic, this year's election will look a lot different. Many voters are counting on absentee ballots to cast their vote in order to avoid crowds at the polls.

A judge had cited slow mail delivery because of the coronavirus as a reason for extending the count if ballots were postmarked by Nov. 3.
