As the October 14 election day approaches, there are many races both state-wide and locally that Lincoln Parish voters need to be informed about heading into the poll.
“One of the most valuable voter information tools available to Louisiana citizens is the GEAUX VOTE MOBILE APP,” Lincoln Parish registrar of voters Sharon Parnell said. “We strongly encourage citizens to use this app to be prepared for voting. Most importantly, the app allows users to view their specific sample ballot before casting their vote. The app also helps users stay informed by checking registration status, party affiliation, polling place locations and directions, and they may enroll to receive notifications of upcoming elections and early voting dates and times. The GEAUX VOTE MOBILE APP is easily found in iPhone and Android app stores and at http://www.GeauxVote.com.
“We also encourage Lincoln Parish citizens to follow us on Facebook and to search ‘Lincoln Parish Registrar of Voters’ to access election information on our parish webpage..
Early voting begins Saturday, Sept. 30 and will go through Saturday, Oct. 7. Voting will be conducted from 8:30 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. each day in the Lincoln Parish Registrar of Voters office on the ground floor of the courthouse at 100 W Texas Ave., in Ruston.
The Louisiana Secretary of State’s website (www.sos.la.gov) also provides sample ballots approximately three weeks prior to each election here. When searching precinct ballots, voters will need to know their ward and precinct. Voters can call the registrar’s office at 318-251-5110 for this information.
