Henry County Voter's Registration/Elections
Barbara M. Link
Welcome
to the web page of the Henry County Voter’s Registration/Elections
Department. As Henry County’s Election Authority, it is my
responsibility for administering all elections within Henry County.
There are 52 precincts with approximately 36,000 registered voters in
the county. This department is also responsible for training deputy
registrars, election judges, providing polling places for all precincts,
and publishing the Voter’s Information Guide.
On
Election Day, the polls are open from 6:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. Voters
who are not able to vote at their respective precincts on Election Day
may qualify to vote absentee. Absentee voting allows voters to cast a
ballot prior to Election Day by applying for a ballot through the mail
or in person at the County Clerk’s Office.
New legislation now provides for early voting and grace period voting.
Early voting allows voters to cast a ballot prior to Election Day
without having to offer a reason or excuse for wanting to vote early.
Grace period voting allows any unregistered qualified elector to
register to vote and a registered voter to submit a change of address
but must vote their ballot at this time.
*Open for ABSENTEE VOTING January 30, 2010 from 8:00 AM -
12:00 PM*
