Durham, N.C. – One-Stop Early Voting kicked off yesterday for Durham’s Municipal Primary.  One-Stop Early Voting, open to all municipal voters, allows citizens to vote at selected sites before the specified Election Day.  Durham’s One Stop voting site for the upcoming election is located at 706 W. Corporation Street.  For One Stop voting hours, visit the 2009 One Stop No Excuse Early Voting Web site.   

Early Voting is easy.  Voters come into the site, state their name and address, and vote.  Early voters that have moved can update their addresses at the One Stop site.  Durham voters also have the option to register and vote at the One Stop site.  Same day registrants must present proper identification.  Voters should note that same day registration is not allowed at precincts on Election Day for the Municipal Primary, Tuesday, October 6. 

 Early voters receive the same ballot as those that vote on the specified Election Day.  Races on the Durham ballot will include City Council Ward 1 and City Council Ward 2.  All City of Durham voters are allowed to vote for both the Ward 1 and Ward 2 races.  Durham County residents in Precinct 32, who reside in the City of Raleigh, will vote for the Raleigh Mayor, the Raleigh City Council at Large, and the City Council Ward E seats.
