A reduction in polling locations has been approved by commissioners in a 3-2 vote. The number of polling sites will decrease from 316 to 224 for early voting and Election Day. This change is intended to improve efficiency, according to the elections administrator.
The new proposal exceeds the statutory minimum number of polling sites required. Some locations were changed due to building issues and ADA requirements. Opponents of the plan express concerns that it may disproportionately affect communities of color, making it harder for some voters to access polling sites.
Further details on the proposal and its potential impact are available.
