Early Voting Starts Today

The State Election Board is reminding people to get out and vote this year.

Spokesperson Bryan Dean says the best way to avoid long lines on Tuesday is to take advantage of early voting at County Election Boards starting today.

"You may still see a few lines at County Election Boards for early voting, but it will probably move a little faster than it might on Election Day, so that's an option as well. And, consider going during off-peak hours if you go on election day."

Dean says the voting takes place at county election boards as well as select satellite locations in Oklahoma, Cleveland and Tulsa Counties.

"Oklahoma has a second location at the Edmond Church of Christ at 800 S. Bryant. Cleveland County's satellite location is at the Moore Norman Technology Center. And, Tulsa County has a satellite location at the Hardesty Library."

Dean says the election board doesn’t want to make any turnout predictions, but it is seeing an increase in registrations and a record number of vote-by-mail requests.

Early voting takes place today and tomorrow from 8AM to 6PM and from 9AM to 2PM on Saturday.
