Absentee voting underway

By BARRY BURLESON
Editor

Absentee voting is available for the Tuesday, Nov. 2, general election.

Absentee ballots, for those who will be unable to make it to the polls on election day for a variety of reasons, are available through the Marshall County Circuit Clerk’s office.

For more information, call the office at 662-252-3434.

Regular business hours for absentee voting at the circuit clerk’s office in the courthouse are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. The office will also be open the next two Saturdays, Oct. 23 and Oct. 30, from 8 a.m. to 12 noon for absentee voting.

The deadline for voting absentee in person is October 30 at noon. Absentee ballots being returned by mail must be in the circuit clerk’s office by 5 p.m. Monday, Nov. 1.

On election day, Nov. 2, polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

For a sample ballot, see page 5.

The 5 South Holly Springs voting precinct, usually located at the Holly Springs National Guard Armory, has been moved for general election up the road to the Shriners building, according to circuit clerk Lucy Carpenter.

The Shriners building is located on the right side of Highway 4 East, if driving east, and directly across the road from the old nursing home which is now a school.

Carpenter said the 5 South Holly Springs precinct is being moved from the armory because the building is under complete renovation and will not be ready for occupancy by the Tuesday, Nov. 2, election.
