City officials are encouraging voters to plan ahead by confirming their polling location and reviewing district information before Election Day. Resources, including a district map and additional election details, are available online through the city’s official elections website.

For those who may not be able to vote in person on Election Day, absentee voting options are also available. Information on how to request and submit an absentee ballot can be found through the same online resources.
