Reply to comment by Prestigious-Buy1774 in How long does it take for vote by mail ballots to get to our house? by JeffMathwig

Until the day you’re not able to make it to the polls on Election Day. Voting early ensures you have time to vote.

By the way, if you don't get your ballot but you can't make it to the polls on election day, there's another option, which is going to the county board of elections and casting a ballot in person. It's essentially in-person early voting.

I’m talking about unforeseen circumstances. I don’t mean a planned absence.

I have never run into that situation myself. But I suppose it depends on the gravity of the situation and the value you put on your right to vote. I would have to be half dead unconscious and in a hospital Before I would give up my right to vote. I plan to be at the Polls Ahead of time And that becomes my priority. What exactly do you consider a reason to not vote at the polls??
