Early voting begins Tuesday

Sunday, June 4, 2017

Members of the Mississippi County Election Commission recently performed a required “logic and accuracy test” on all voting equipment in preparation for the upcoming school millage election. Early voting begins on Tuesday, June 6 and Election Day will be on Tuesday, June 13. If approved, the Blytheville millage rate would increase from the current 33.39 to 40.5 mills (approximately $9.48/month for an $80,000 home). The money would provide a new turf football field, a new gym with more parking, an upgraded track and teacher raises. Early voting will be from 9 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Monday, June 12 at the Mississippi County Election Center. Election Day voting on Tuesday, June 13 will be from 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. at Trinity Baptist Church, the Election Center, AAMOD and ANC-Burdette.
