Help decide when and where early voting happens: Take Buncombe County’s primary voting survey

Press release from Buncombe County Board of Elections:

Help decide when and where the 2024 Primary Election’s Early Voting will happen by taking a six-question survey. The Buncombe County Board of Elections will take this feedback into consideration when determining the locations and weekend hours for Early Voting, particularly in regard to site suggestions for north and south Asheville.

The Board of Elections will meet on Tuesday, Sep. 12 to discuss public input of the Early Voting plan for the primary election and adopt it at the Oct. 17 meeting. After that, Buncombe County will publicize the finalized locations and hours on our website, through media partners, social media, and other platforms.
