Voting in Person on Election Day
Make Your Plan Now!
There are many benefits to early voting in Arizona, but still many of us love the ceremony and the sense of community of voting in person at a local polling place. If this is you, or someone you know, be sure to make a voting plan ahead of time. This year’s long ballot could create long wait times, frustration, or even the inclination to leave some ballot choices blank if voters are unprepared. So plan for place, time, and the votes you will cast!
Coconino County will have 38 polling sites open on Election Day. Fifteen of these are Vote Centers – that means a voter residing anywhere within the County can receive a paper ballot reflecting their own precinct. Every location in the City of Flagstaff, plus sites in Page, Leupp, Tuba City, Williams, and Grand Canyon Village, will be a Vote Center. Other locations are Precinct-based – meaning that they will be prepared with paper ballots for specific precincts. Every location, even the smallest, will have Express Vote machines; these provide accessibility for voters with visual disabilities or those who wish to vote in Spanish, Navajo/Diné, or Hopi. And the Express Vote machines can actually provide out-of-precinct ballots as well; County election workers are determined that every eligible voter can cast a ballot, no matter where in the County they go to vote.
This link goes to the list of polling locations with addresses. Note that no schools are serving as voting sites, unlike former years. Choose the site that will be most convenient for you on Election Day!
Polling Locations for Election Day
Think about WHEN you plan to vote. The polls open at 6 am and stay open until 7 pm (or until the last person who was in line at 7 pm has finished voting). In some locations there might be a “rush” hour of people voting before or after their workday shifts. But the County is attempting to staff sites with enough poll workers to minimize the chance of long waiting times. Have your identification handy!

Finally – do your research and know how you plan to vote. On average we each have 37 choices to make on our long ballot – some have even more! Take our Ballot Guide with you to the polls and use our recommendations (if you have misplaced it, find it on our website here: https://coconinodemocrats.org/sample-ballot/ ).
And take advantage of excellent guides put together by the Friends of Flagstaff’s Future, Civic Engagement Beyond Voting, or other organizations you respect.
This is the moment we have been working toward for two years – make certain your voice is heard!
