PRIMARY ELECTION DAY IS TUESDAY, AUGUST 26th

Miami-Dade County Manager George Burgess available on Election Day







(MIAMI, August 25, 2008) - The Early Voting period came to a close

yesterday and the Miami-Dade Elections Department is now busy ensuring

all polling places are ready to go for Election Day.







Voters should remember a few important things before heading to the

polls. Unlike during Early Voting, on Election Day, voters must go to

their assigned polling place, which can be found on their Voter

Information Card or by calling 3-1-1. Voters should bring identification

that contains a photo and their signature. If acceptable ID is not

available, voters will be asked to vote a provisional ballot. Now that

Miami-Dade County is voting on paper, voters should look at both sides

of the ballot to review all questions. The Elections Department ensures

all voters the ability to cast a ballot. Electronic equipment, or

iVotronics, used in previous elections will still be on-site at

precincts for use by people with disabilities.







In addition, media wanting interviews throughout Election Day are urged

to visit the locations below.
