The first week of early voting is in the books for Arkansas. In Baxter County, voter turnout has been higher than expected.
Baxter County and Circuit Clerk Canda Reese says she has been pleasantly surprised by the amount of voters casting an early ballot.
Listen:
One of the biggest differences this year has been the addition of a second early voting location. Reese says having Christ Community Church (also known as C3) in the Twin Lakes Plaza as an alternative polling location has been a positive.
Listen:
Early voting continues through next Monday at the Baxter County Courthouse and C3 weekdays from 8:00 until 6:00 and Saturday from 10:00 until 4:00. For anyone looking to cast an early ballot at the courthouse, Reese reminds the public there is a handicap-accessible entrance on the north side.
