Ready, Set...Early Voting Starts This Weekend

Julia Ritchey

Starting this weekend, some Washoe County voters will be heading to the polls to cast their ballots. Reno Public Radio’s Anh Gray has the details.

Luanne Cutler is with Washoe’s Registrar of Voters. She’s expecting most people to turn out during early voting.

“The past few election cycles," Cutler explains, "we’ve had well more than half of the voters who show up, vote early.”

Based on past elections, it gets even busier in the last few days of early voting, so Cutler has this advice:

“If the voters have already made up their minds," Cutler says, "who they’re going to vote for and so on, get out and vote in that first week of early voting because that will be the least busy time that there is going to be."

Early voting begins October 22nd and goes through November 4th. Click here for the early voting schedule and a list of polling locations.
