Early voting starts today in several Idaho counties

POCATELLO, Idaho (KIFI) — Early voting has begun in some counties across Idaho. They include Bannock, Caribou, Clark, Custer, Franklin, and Teton Counties in Eastern Idaho. That means registered voters can go to their county's election office now and cast a ballot, rather than waiting until Election Day on November 3. Other counties will begin in the coming days.

Absentee ballots are also available and must be requested before 5 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 23. To request visit voteidaho.gov.

If you vote early, you cannot vote on Election Day.

If you need to register to vote, you have until Oct. 23. You can register at voteidaho.gov.

Other counties will offer early voting starting next Monday, Oct. 19. Below is a list of when each county begins.

Some counties will not offer Early Voting. Instead people can request an Absentee Ballot. They include Bear Lake, Benewah, Boundary, Butte, Payette, and Shoshone counties.
