November 3rd is Election Day, but as always, you don't have to wait until then let your voice be heard. If you've done your research, and know who you want to see in the offices up for grabs on your ballot, you can cast your vote early now that early voting is underway in the state of Indiana.

Mail-in ballots are of course an option, but if you're afraid it may not get there on time, or just prefer the in-person route, these are your options if you're a resident of Posey County:

Posey County Courthouse

  • October 6th - 30th: Monday - Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
  • Saturday, October 24th & Saturday, October 31st: 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
  • Monday, November 2nd: 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

Marrs Township Fire Station

  • Saturday, October 24th & Saturday, October 31st: 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Poseyville Community Center

  • Saturday, October 24th & Saturday, October 31st: 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Before you rush out the door, mask in hand of course, there are some things you need to know, and some things you need to bring.

  • You must be age 18 or older and registered to vote. If you're 17 but will be 18 by November 3, 2020, you can still register to vote. Find out how to register here - the deadline to register is October 5, 2020.
  • Early Voting takes place beginning October 6, 2020
  • If you have a felony conviction on your record, you are allowed to vote in the state of Indiana. Only those currently in jail or prison are barred from voting.
  • Before you head to the polls, make sure you have a valid photo ID issued by the State of Indiana or US Government. It must contain your name, a photo and an expiration date "that shows the ID current or expired after November 6, 2018."
