HOUSTON COUNTY – Early voting ended on Friday, July 10 and after what seems like forever, it is finally time for voters to go to the polls and cast their ballots in the July 14 primary runoff.

Houston County Elections Administrator Cynthia Lum would like to remind voters to go to the polls on Tuesday between the hours of 7 am and 7 pm to cast your vote in the runoffs for County Sheriff and Precinct Three County Commissioner. 

“Due to COVID-19, there has been a great reduction in available poll workers. Some polling locations have been combined in order to meet staffing requirements and social distancing. Please check with your county party chair, the county’s website, newspapers or listen to KIVY for updates,” Lum stated.

Lum also said she would like to remind voters that voting requirements have been modified due to COVID-19. Because each station must be sanitized between voters, the check-in process may be slower than normal.

“Voters are asked to please sanitize before you enter the polling location and that you wear a face covering.  Social distancing of 6ft will be enforced. You are a crucial part of keeping our elections safe. Should you have any health issues that prevent you from wearing a face covering or have symptoms of COVID-19, you are encouraged to utilize Curbside Voting to limit exposure,” Lum added.
