Here is the order of operations as laid out by the City of Huntsville:
Sept. 9 - Last day to register to vote for the Runoff. Last day for City Council to appoint election officials.
Sept. 17 - Last day for a voter to apply for a regular absentee ballot.
Sept. 23 - Last day for a voter to apply for an emergency absentee ballot.
Sept. 24 - Runoff Election Day. Candidates may appoint a poll watcher to observe voting procedures in the polling place. The appointment must be made in writing, signed by the candidate and filed with election officials at the polling place.
Sept. 25 - Deadline for the absentee election manager to notify voters whose absentee ballots have become provisional due to the inspector’s personal knowledge that voter was not eligible to vote.
Sept. 27 - Last day for an absentee voter who failed to provide identification before the election to submit identification to the board of registrars to have their vote counted.
Michelle Watkins, the front-runner for the District 1 council seat, would face incumbent Devyn Keith. 344 votes separated them during the main election. In the Board of Education race, only 164 votes separated Chaundra Jones and Pat King for that seat.
