Remember, if you move or change your name, you must re-register to vote! It is still very important that we let our voices be heard by voting. This year is a very important voting year. Meadowlark Hills is no longer a voting site. Although there will be shuttles to the fire station located at Denison Ave. and Kimball Ave. on voting day – there is another way to consider—registering for a permanent advance ballot. Our County Clerk’s Office tells us:

• If you have moved to Meadowlark Hills since you voted last you must re-register
• If you have moved within Meadowlark Hills, such as from an outside duplex into the tower, you must re-register.
• The Clerk also urges you to apply for permanent advanced voting. This means a ballot will be mailed to you ahead of all elections, you can vote in your own quiet home, and you don’t have to be sure you have the identification you’d need at the poll. ID is not required if you vote by permanent advance ballot.

The forms needed and answers to further questions are available by calling Tom or Lynette at the Hospitality Desk at 323-3847. When you have completed the paperwork, you can turn them into the Hospitality Desk and they will be delivered to the Clerk’s office or you may mail them yourself. You may also call Jolene Keck, Election Supervisor at the County Clerk’s Office, at 565-6201, for details or further clarification. Jolene can also tell you if you are registered at your current address and have previously applied for advanced voting privileges, if you are not sure of your voting status. In order to vote in the primary election this paperwork must be done as soon as possible.
