Make a plan to avoid lines on Election Day. You can register to vote or check your current registration information at BeBallotReady.Vote. You can skip lines altogether by voting early in-person or by mail. On Election Day, find the shortest lines at the link below.
You can also do your research ahead of time. Even if you don't vote all of the contests, it's important that you return both pages of the ballot. This will help ensure your ballot is counted quickly and accurately.
Just a reminder, results will take time. Voter turnout is expected to be high and races will be close.

Happy Tails
"When we went to the Maricopa Country shelter roughly 7 years ago, we never knew we'd find such a wonderful dog. Maxwell was there waiting for us, and it was his first day up for adoption. Since adopting him, he has become such a big part of our family. He travels with us and even packs himself in his dog carrier when it's time to go. Thanks for bringing Max into our lives and family!"
