If you plan to vote in the November 2020 election it is important to ACT NOW! Don't wait, return your voted ballot right away! Remember U.S. embassies and consulates are not polling places; same-day in-person voting is not available outside the United States - but you can get assistance in requesting and returning your absentee ballot. Many states require voted ballots to reach local election officials by the close of polls on Tuesday, November 3.

The Department of State is committed to assisting overseas voters in casting their ballots. For instructions on how to vote from Latvia please see the website of the US Embassy in Riga: https://lv.usembassy.gov. For general overseas voting information please see the Department of State's web site Absentee Voting Information for U.S. Citizens Abroad or FVAP.gov.
