election board office door Early voting begins Thursday February 6 for the Special School Bond Election for Poteau School District for voters in LeFlore County. Voters who will not be able to make it to the polls on Election Day, have the option of voting early at their County Election Board.

LeFlore County Election Board Secretary, Kayla Rees, said early voting is open to all voters.

“You do not need to provide an excuse to vote early. Oklahoma allows early voting for all elections conducted through the State Election Board-from school board and municipal elections to state and federal elections. This is a great option for those who will be out of town on Election Day or who want to avoid long lines,” Rees said.

Early voting is available Thursday February 6 and Friday February 7 from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. at the County Election Board located at 103 N. Church St., Poteau. Rees reminds voters that early voting is not available at polling locations.

The Leflore County Election Board is located at 103 N. Church St., and is open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. For questions, please contact the Election Board at 918-647-3701 or leflorecounty@elections.ok.gov.
