Wake County residents who want to vote early for the November 5 General Election can start on Thursday. The Northern Regional Center, located at 350 E. Holding Ave., along with 21 other local sites, will be open to voters. Early voting will run until November 2, with various hours throughout the week, as reported by Town of Wake Forest.
Voting sites will operate weekdays from 8 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., and Sundays from 1 to 6 p.m. Wake County advises that in the past, lines are shortest in the early days of the voting period. Higher traffic is usually seen around weekday lunchtimes, Saturday mornings from 10 to 11 a.m., and especially during the final three days of early voting, according to the Town of Wake Forest.
