absentee ballot

Absentee ballots, also known as absentee votes or mail-in votes, are paper ballots that are submitted before Election Day, usually by mail, by voters who are unable to vote in person at their designated polling place. The specific requirements a registered voter must meet to use an absentee ballot differ significantly by state and jurisdiction.

Alcohol is a class of chemical compounds consumed as a liquid by individuals for its intoxicating effect or used in industrial projects for its other unique properties. 

Absent any specific regulation, alcohol is treated like all other forms of personal property. However, the general rights of property are subject to the police power regulations of the state, local, and federal governments.
