[Music plays.]

[Title: Need Help?]

[The screen displays Step 9 of the Voter Registration and Absentee Ballot request website. Step 9 Absentee Request has been selected from the menu on the left.

In this step there is text that asks if the voter would like an absentee ballot for the 2018 elections? (Required). There are links leading to more information about absentee voting and a link to a page featuring the contests on the 2018 election's ballots. There are two options that a voter can choose.

The first option states 'I intend to vote in person and do not want an absentee ballot.' The option beneath it states 'I would like to receive an absentee ballot.'

There is an option button next to each choice to allow the voter to make their selection.]

Narrator: You can request to have an absentee ballot sent to you for the primary election.

[As an example, a blue arrow appears and selects the option button for 'I would like to receive an absentee ballot.' The screen extends to allow the voter to choose the elections for which they wish to receive an absentee ballot.

To demonstrate how to request an absentee ballot for only the 2018 Primary Election, the arrow moves and selects the option box stating "I would like an absentee ballot for the 2018 Primary Election.' A check mark appears in the box to show has been selected.]

Narrator: The general election.

[To demonstrate how to request an absentee ballot for only the 2018 General Election, the blue arrow unselects the option box requesting an absentee ballot for the primary election. The arrow then selects the option box stating "I would like an absentee ballot for the 2018 General Election.' A check mark appears in the box to show it has been selected.]

Narrator: Or both elections.

[To demonstrate how to request an absentee ballot for both elections, the blue arrow then unselects the option box requesting an absentee ballot for the general election. It then selects the option boxes for both the primary and general elections. A check mark appears in both boxes to indicate they've been selected. The screen extends so that the voter can specify how they would like their absentee ballot delivered to them for each election. A tab labeled 'Delivery Method (Required)' appears under both the primary and the general election delivery method options since both have been selected.]

Narrator: If you choose 'Through Email' as your absentee ballot delivery method, please ensure that the email address you enter is accurate.

[The arrow selects the tab beneath Delivery Method and a menu appears, displaying the delivery method options for the Primary Election's absentee ballot. The options are 'In the Mail, Through email' and 'As a fax.' The arrow chooses 'Through email.' A field labeled 'Email Address (Required)' appears. A sample email address is typed into the field. The arrow then moves towards the General Election's Delivery method tab.]
