LAWRENCE CO. – Early voting for the May 7 primary starts today, with a host of competitive races for party nominations for federal, state, and local offices up for grabs.
Because it is a primary, voters must choose either the Republican or Democratic ballot. It is not possible to vote for candidates in both parties. The winners in the primary will secure their party’s nomination to run for office in the general election this fall.
There are several contested primaries this year on the Republican ballot.
Six Republicans are seeking their party’s nomination for Indiana governor, including current Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch, Sen. Mike Braun, Brad Chambers, Eric Doden, Curtis Hill, and Jamie Reitenour.
Early voting for the 2024 Primary Election begins on Tuesday, April 9th, and continues through Friday, May 3, at noon at the Lawrence County Voter Registration Office.
Voters can vote from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Early voting will also be held on Saturday, April 27, and Saturday, May 4th, at the Voter Registration office and the Mithell Community Center from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m.
