The city will operate one in-person vote center at the Activity Center at Bohrer Park, 506 South Frederick Avenue, and will maintain seven ballot drop-box locations throughout the city. The city is offering same-day voter registration for the 2025 election.

For registration confirmation and additional information the council directed residents to contact the Montgomery County Board of Elections and to visit the city’s elections webpage.
