Ahead of municipal elections next Tuesday, August 26, across Alabama, Secretary of State Wes Allen is encouraging voters to read up on election-related information before going to the polls.

On Tuesday, Allen promoted the official resource site for Alabamians seeking information about their local elections.

“AlabamaVotes.gov makes several important tools available to Alabama’s voters. Before heading to the polls on August 26th, I would encourage Alabama voters to visit our website and verify their voter registration status and polling location,” Allen said.

“Voters can also review information on Alabama’s important photo voter ID requirements on AlabamaVotes.gov.”

Polls will be open on August 26 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Voters are required to present a valid form of photo identification when voting at their polling place or by absentee ballot.
