County elections official Mr. Robinette told the court he reduced Election Day polling places to 13 for the Nov. 7 constitutional amendment election, allocating locations across precincts and listing early‑voting sites including the elections office and several community centers.
He said the plan is consistent with anticipated low turnout for a constitutional amendment election and that the county will revisit locations for higher‑turnout contests (primary/general elections). "This gives a pretty good representation across the county so that everybody has an opportunity to not have to drive too far to vote," he said, citing an expectation that no voter would be required to drive more than 25 miles per election code guidance.
The court approved the polling places by unanimous vote.
