Absentee Ballot Hasn't Arrived

[Roguelet]

My son is out of state at college so he requested an absentee ballot. His voter portal shows that the ballot was mailed out on the 16th, but he hasn't received it yet. I read about this being a problem in Marion County, but we're in Montgomery County. Has anyone else had a similar issue? What did you do about it?

In the primary I requested an absentee ballot that never came. When I arrived at the polls to vote, they said I already had. I convinced them that I already hadn't. Still pissed off about it. Voted early in person this time.

I wish he could just go vote in person, but it's a 7.5 hr drive one way. Even if he wanted to drive 15 hours to vote, his school is now a closed campus with a non-essential travel policy... so there would be "consequences."

Mine arrived ok, but it was sent to my house and not a different address.

I did mine online originally and after 2 weeks I called the county clerk's office and she had the application for absentee at my house in 2 days, filled it out and mailed it. Had the ballot 4 days later
