Registered voters in McCurtain County who become physically incapacitated after 5 p.m. Tuesday, February 2,won’t have to miss the February 9 McCurtain County Annual School Election, County Election Board Secretary Lue Davis said today.
Davis said state law permits registered voters who will be unable to go to the polls because they became incapacitated after 5 p.m. Tuesday, February 2, to vote on an emergency basis. "Physical incapacitation" includes a variety of conditions---injury, illness, childbirth---that prevent a person from voting in person at the polls on election day.
"If you think that you or someone you know fits into this category, contact the County Election Board office at (580)286-7405 as soon as possible for more information," Davis said.
