Early voting turnout continues this week 8:30 to 5:00 p.m. The last Saturday voting is this Saturday Oct. 26 from 9 to 5. If you have any questions about your ballot or procedures do not hesitate to ask. We are aware of a header typo on the presidential race. It is purely a cosmetic typo and has no bearing on your choice. It can take weeks to reproof ballot proofs and get them loaded on the machines, therefore this typo will not be corrected for this election. But again it has no bearing on your choice which is indicated below the header on the printed ballot. These were tested multiple times for accuracy in counting.
Please check your ballot to confirm your choice on the printed ballot matches what you have chosen and if you have ANY questions please alert a poll worker.
