Voting begins Monday in General Election

A reminder for Historic City News readers that early voting for the General Election begins Monday October 18th and will continue Monday through Saturday until October 30th.

“Voters may go to ANY early voting location in St. Johns County,” according to Assistant Supervisor Vicky Oakes. “Ballots may be cast between 8:30 A.M. and 4:30 P.M. at all locations.”

Polling locations open for early voting include:

Supervisor of Elections Main Office
Southeast Branch Library
St. Augustine Beach City Hall
Julington Creek Annex/County Service Center
Ponte Vedra Library
Hastings Town Hall

“If you do not have proper ID, you must vote a provisional ballot,” Oakes cautioned, so, be certain to take current and valid photo and signature ID with you when you go to the polls.

Any registered voter may vote by absentee ballot. 5:00 p.m. on October 27, 2010 is the deadline for requesting an absentee ballot to be mailed to you. Absentee ballots may be requested by telephone, on-line, or in person at the Elections Office, and they are currently available.

In order for your absentee ballot to be counted, it must be returned to the Supervisor of Elections Office by 7:00 P.M. on Election Day.

The Supervisor of Elections Office is located at 4455 Avenue A, Suite 101 in St. Augustine, and can be reached by calling (904) 823-2238 or on the Internet at http://sjcvotes.us
