With the March 5 Presidential Primary Election less than two weeks away, Nevada County’s Vote Centers will open on staggered schedules beginning this Saturday, Feb. 24.
The first two Vote Centers are opening at the Rood Center in Nevada City and Truckee Town Hall with hours scheduled 8 a.m.-5 p.m. daily until Election Day, when they expand to 7 a.m.-8 p.m. At the centers, voters can vote in person, drop off a ballot, get a replacement ballot, use accessible voting machines, get assistance in multiple languages, and register to vote or update registration. Hours are 8 a.m.-5 p.m. daily until March 5 when they expand to 7 a.m.-8 p.m.
Voters can also return their ballots in the mail or in drop boxes around the county. As of Feb. 16, 3,349 county voters have returned their ballots or 4.4 percent of the county’s approximately 75,000 registered voters.
Among the choices voters are asked to make are selections for candidates for President, U.S. Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, state senate, state assembly, the Nevada County Board of Supervisors, the Nevada City Council, a state proposition and three local ballot measures.
