Notice: Elderly and Handicapped Voters
Notice is hereby given of the availability of registration and voting aids under the Federal Voting Accessibility for the Elderly and Handicapped Act, of the availability of assistance in marking the ballot, procedures for voting by vote by mail ballot and procedures for voting early by personal appearance.

If you have difficulty physically entering either the early or Election Day voting site, you may want to take advantage of the voting by mail option.
