You wake up and realize it’s Nov. 8 — Election Day — and you need in-person assistance to vote before the polls close at 7 p.m. It’s good to know that there are 20 Voter Service and Polling Centers (VSPC) in Douglas County open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. to assist you.
Please visit a VSPC if you need to register to vote, update your voter registration, replace a ballot, vote in person or use an ADA-accessible voting machine. If you’re ready to drop off your completed ballot and do not need staff assistance on Election Day, simply deliver your ballot to one of the 21 convenient ballot drop boxes located throughout Douglas County by 7 p.m.
Find a VSPC and see wait times for all locations on DouglasVotes.com – wait times are updated hourly. Please note that Douglas County high schools are no longer VSPC locations.
Each VSPC has designated ADA parking and is equipped with an ADA accessible voting machine and voting booth. Voters with sight impairments have the option to listen to an audio ballot. Those who require additional forms of assistance may bring a person of their choosing to help them in marking their ballot or may request assistance from an election judge at the VSPC.
Be aware of the 7 p.m. Election Day ballot deadline. Your ballot must be received by mail, placed in a designated ballot drop box, or you must be in line at a ballot drop box or VSPC location no later than the close of polls at 7 p.m. on Election Day, Nov. 8, for your ballot to count. A postmark of Nov. 8 is not valid as the received date.
