Local residents have only until Thursday to take advantage of early voting opportunities in this year’s election. Officials are encouraging voters to make their voices heard and avoid anticipated Election Day lines.
During early voting, nine different Rutherford County polling sites have been open, giving voters the chance to cast their ballots at convenient times. The county has reported steady turnout so far, with the earliest days and here at the end of early voting being the busiest.
Administrator Alan Farley reminds those who choose to vote at the Election Commission offices on the downtown square Thursday that trick or treating from 3-5pm will restrict parking and even driving on the outer circle. You'll have to park and walk to the office or choose one of the other eight locations. The most convenient to their office is the annex on Vine Street.
If you don't vote early, you'll need to wait until Election Day to cast your ballot. With the county's convenient vote centers, you are able to vote at any location, regardless if it's in your district or not.
For more details on voting times and locations, residents are encouraged to check the Rutherford County Election Commission website.
