Teams from the Elections Office hit the road this morning, Monday, 22 March, to facilitate the first votes in the 2021 General Election conducted via mobile voting.

Election Office officials were in the electoral districts of West Bay where pre-approved voters who couldn’t, for whatever reason, attend a polling station on Election Day were able to cast their ballots beforehand.

The team were expected to poll 42 voters in West Bay North, 11 voters in West Bay West, 25 in West Bay South and 72 voters in West Bay Central.

“All our processes worked very well this morning to ensure election officials and agents were in place, ready to begin accepting votes at the prescribed times. Elections Office teams have all received the required training and I am confident we will see on Election Day, the same level of professionalism, dedication and care as we’ve seen today,” commented the Supervisor of Elections, Wesley Howell.

For the remaining week, mobile teams will be active in the following districts on the following dates.

• Tuesday, 23 March - Bodden Town East, Bodden Town West, Newlands and Savannah.
• Wednesday, 24 March - George Town South, Prospect and George Town North.
• Thursday, 25 March – Red Bay, George Town West, George Town East and George Town Central.
• Friday, 26 March - North Side and East End.

Persons approved for home visits can expect the polling teams between 9am and 6pm, persons voting in person at the static mobile locations can do so between 9am and 1pm.

The deadline for mobile voting applications is Tuesday, 6 April. Forms are available on www.elections.ky.

The second round of mobile voting will be held on 8 and 9 April.
