Q: What is the difference between Proxy and Postal voting?
A: Either avoids the need to visit in person the polling booth on Election Day. Postal votes are sent out usually 4 weeks or so before the election and they must be returned prior to Election Day. If you think you might be away when the postal vote arrives at your home then asking someone to vote on your behalf is a good solution.
