Have you voted?

Early voting is under way for the Louisiana 2011 primary election season. Registered voters in the Tri-parish region can cast ballots in the general election at locations designated by their respective registrar of voters through Oct. 15.

The Louisiana Secretary of State’s Office established early voting dates for this year’s gubernatorial primary and general elections.

State ordinances require that parish registrars of voters offer a 14-day opening to any scheduled election for voters to cast early ballots. Individual parishes set the locations and open their doors between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 6 p.m.

Early voting goes until Oct. 15 (except Sunday) for the Oct. 22 primary, and Nov. 12 (except Sunday and Veteran’s Day on Nov. 11) for the general election on Nov. 19.

Early voting locations in the Tri-parishes include the Terrebonne Parish Registrar of Voters office, 7856 Main St. in Houma, Lafourche Parish Registrar of Voters offices at 307 W. 4th St. in Thibodaux and the South Lafourche Library Building at 16241 E. Main St. in Cut Off, St. Mary Registrar of Voters offices at 101 Wilson St. in Franklin and 301 3rd St. in Morgan City.
