 Welcome to All Hands Update. I'm Petty Officer Tony Rosa. Election Day is November 4th and you're encouraged to exercise your right to vote. Make sure to get your voter registration and absentee ballot requests in early. Once you receive your absentee ballot and send it in, you can now track it online to its final destination. The Navy has teamed up with the U.S. Postal Service and Military Postal Service Agency to provide you with the ability to track your absentee ballot if sent from a Navy Fleet Postal Office or FPO. Ballots mailed from Navy FPO's are also upgraded to Priority Mail Express, courtesy of the Department of Defense. 2014 is referred to as an off-year election. These elections typically have small margins, which means your absentee vote counts. Go to fvap.gov to register to vote and request an absentee ballot. Once you send your ballot in, visit usps.com to track it to its final destination.
