Wes Allen, Alabama’s Secretary of State, reminds Alabama voters of important information heading into the August 11 Special Primary Election for congressional districts 1, 2, 6, and 7.
“AlabamaVotes.gov remains the best resource for voters preparing to exercise their right to vote in the August 11 Special Primary Election,” said Secretary Allen. “Alabamians can verify their congressional district and voter registration status, find their polling location, and review their county’s sample ballot so that they are fully prepared when heading to the polls.”
On Election Day, polls will be open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Voters are required to present a valid form of photo identification before voting at their polling place or by absentee ballot.
Election results will be posted on a door or other visible location at each polling place. Cumulative unofficial election results will be posted on the Alabama Secretary of State’s website at www.AlabamaVotes.gov.
Secretary Allen extends his support and gratitude to local election officials as they work hard to prepare for the August 11 Special Primary Election.
“Our elections would not be possible without the dedication of the local election officials who work tirelessly to ensure every Alabama election is conducted securely, transparently, and with accountability. I commend our probate judges, circuit clerks, sheriffs, boards of registrars, and poll workers for the important role they play in the Alabama elections process,” said Secretary Allen.
