Early Voting begins twenty (20) days and ends five (5) days before each election with the exception of the Presidential Preference Primary which ends seven (7) days before election .. Early Voting is conducted at the Election Commission Office, and at satellite locations to be announced.
No reason is needed to vote early. If needed, the voter may change his/her address or name while voting early. Inactive voters can also be reactivated. We strongly encourage candidates and their workers, who may encounter a voter who needs to change his/her name or address, to do so prior to the deadline to register or at the latest, during early voting.
Voters need to bring a state or federal government issued ID with them. The voter’s registration card is our first choice because it has the voter’s number on it and speeds up the process.
Hours for early voting will be decided by the Election Commission and announced for each election.
On the last day of early voting, machines will be sealed and taken to a secure location. Early voting results will be tallied after closing of the polls at 7:00 p.m. on election night.
Early voting for the November 8th Elections is available October 19th through November 3rd at seven polling locations except on Sundays.
