Winslow is expecting between 61 percent to 62 percent of the county's registered voters to vote on Tuesday. About 98,500 Democratic voters are registered countywide. And there are about 54,200 Republicans. The remaining 7,000 or so voters are registered with third parties, including the Green Party, Libertarian Party and Peace and Freedom Party. Those voting by absentee ballot have until 8 p.m. Tuesday to hand carry their ballots to either a polling place or Winslow's office, located at 510 Clay St. in Fairfield.
Absentee voters can also authorize someone else to return their ballot.
But Winslow said such ballots will only be accepted if they carry a letter from the voter authorizing the person to return the ballot. The deliverer's name also must be listed in a box on the ballot. Polls will open at 7 a.m. Tuesday and close at 8 p.m. As has been the case during recent past elections, Winslow's office will post election results on the Internet on election night.
