The clock is ticking to apply to absentee vote in alabama.

The deadline is tomorrow!

Waay31s sierra phillips is live at the madison county courthouse.

Sierra, we understand it could be a busy day there today?

Exactly, right now its quiet but just yesterday lines wrapped around the building as people dropped off their absentee ballot in person.

Take a look at those lines!

Absentee and mail-in voting is how alabamians can early vote this election.

That's because "no excuse" earl voting is against alabama state law.

Secretary of state john merrill says if lawmakers decided to change the current law prohibiting no excuse early voting -- it would cost the state more money -- and wouldn't make a huge impact on voter turnout.

Some activists disagree.

The majority of our country is doing it, the majority of those engaged are finding success.

Not only that, but there's not only more participation, but there are more resources."

Employers in alabama are required to allow their employees to have time off in order to vote.

That employee just has to give reasonable notice and they have 1 hour to vote.
