Vote Early - Avoid the Lines


The primary is Tuesday August 24, 2010. Residents who serve as election judges have advised that the whole system has changed. Gone are the punch cards and machine voting.
There is still early voting. Check the newspaper and television news for the details. You will get to vote for your party's candidates for the offices that are open. If you can't get to the polling place you can call 813-612-4180 no later than August 18, 2010 to have an absentee ballot mailed to your home. You will have to mail it back before the 24th. (You will need two stamps.) You will get the ballot only for the party that you have elected to declare when you signed up at the Board of Elections.
