Early voting underway

Posted on by Brian Postelle

One-stop voting for the Buncombe County municipal elections began today and runs through Oct. 31. For now, early voting is only operational at the Buncombe County Election Services building at 189 College Street.

Sample ballots can be found on the elections services web site here. To see a sample of the Asheville Council and Mayoral ballot, click here.

For those who haven’t made up their minds for Asheville’s municipal election, Xpress will publish its voter guide next week, on Oct. 21.

Before you comment

The comments section is here to provide a platform for civil dialogue on the issues we face together as a local community. Xpress is committed to offering this platform for all voices, but when the tone of the discussion gets nasty or strays off topic, we believe many people choose not to participate. Xpress editors are determined to moderate comments to ensure a constructive interchange is maintained. All comments judged not to be in keeping with the spirit of civil discourse will be removed and repeat violators will be banned. See here for our terms of service. Thank you for being part of this effort to promote respectful discussion.

    Remember to write in Tim Peck for city council. He promises to erect erotic statues of Ayn Rand all over town.
