Special COVID-19 information:

While voters are strongly encouraged to wear a mask inside their polling location, no one can be turned away for not wearing a mask

On June 30, 2020, the state Attorney General’s Office declared, “Though the Attorney General strongly recommends that voters and poll workers follow CDC guidelines when in public places and behave in a manner that is respectful of poll workers and fellow voters, it is clear that state law does not allow for an individual’s qualification to vote to be contingent upon the wearing of a mask or face covering, respecting social distancing, using gloves, or having a temperature in a normal range.”
