Tuesday is in person voting and Vote By Mail Ballots must be post marked no later than November 3rd. They can be received up to 7 days after election day. With the state and federal issues on the ballot, turn out is expected to be very high. Counting will start once the polls close at 8:00 pm Tuesday. An official count is not expected to be complete for two weeks or longer after the polls close. The Elections Department has a month to canvass the ballots and certify the count.
