Early voting for the spring elections, now moved to July and August, will last two weeks instead of the usual one week. Here in Red River Parish there are no local issues on the ballot, just the Presidential Primary.
The general election has been moved to August 15th. There will be one local tax issue on that ballot. The Red River Fire Protection District has requested voters to approve an early renewal of their property tax. They made the request to help ease the budget burden from the payoff of the construction of the new fire station. Early renewal would allow the balance to be stretched over ten years.
The dates for early voting for the July 11th election are Saturday June 20th through Saturday July 4th. We double checked with the local Registrar of Voters office and they will be open on July 4th. Hours are 8:30 am until 6:00 pm each day. There will be no voting on Sundays.
The full schedule is attached below.
