Primary Voting
Early voting until Friday, Sept. 11.
Election Day, Tuesday, Sept. 15.
If voting on Election Day is difficult
because of work or other obligations,
you can strike casting a ballot from
your civic duties to-do list by hitting
one of the early polling locations. To
find a location, check with your county
clerk who can tell you what (if any) primary
elections are happening in your
city.
In all races, the two candidates who
receive the highest number of votes
move to the general election, and often
the margins of victory are only a few
dozen votes—so your vote truly does
count at the local level.
When you vote, remember that you’ll need official identification, such as a driver license or current U.S. passport. In a pinch, you can try showing two separate documents, such as utility bills, that list your name and current address. If you lack any form of identification at the polls, ask for a provisional ballot, and you can bring ID to your city recorder or county clerk within five days of voting to make your vote will count.
