STEELE CREEK NEWS

Vote Tuesday at your Precinct Polling Location

Vote!(November 6, 2016) Early Voting finished on Saturday, and 19,672 people voted at the Steele Creek Early Voting Site at York Ridge Shopping Center. This was the fifth busiest site among the 22 sites in Mecklenburg County.

The last day to request an Absentee Ballot was November 1. If you have an Absentee Ballot, it must be returned to the Board of Elections by 5:00 p.m. on November 8 by the voter or the voter's near relative. Ballots sent by mail must bear a postmark that is dated on or before November 8 and be received no later than 5:00 p.m. on the third day following the election. Since the third day following the election is a holiday (Veterans Day on November 11) it appears that Absentee Ballots must be received by Monday, November 14. See the North Carolina Board of Elections web site for more information.         

Election Day, Tuesday, November 8

If you vote on Election Day, you must go to your precinct's polling location. (See the MAP below.) Election Day polls will be open from 6:30 a.m. until 7:30 p.m. (If you are in line by 7:30 p.m. you will be able to vote.) You will NOT be required to show an ID. You must be registered to vote in Mecklenburg County. (Same day registration was only available during Early Voting.) (If you do not go to your assigned voting location, you will be able to cast a Provisional Ballot.)
