Have you voted yet?

Updated 5:25 p.m. As of 5:25 p.m. voting was proceeding smoothly at the St. Augustine’s Parish Center with 1,500 (35%) ) of Peru’s 4,232 registered voters already casting ballots. Election worker and Peru Gazette contributor Don McBrayer reported that there were only a few bottlenecks. Even though six privacy booths were in place sometimes they were all in use so several voters resorted to sitting at tables that have been set up at the room’s perimeter. The five ballot scanners were working smoothly with no backups. Some voters were upset over the confusing wording on the County Legislator term limits question which appears on the back of the ballot. A “Yes” vote means that you do not want term limits. A “No” vote means you believe there should be term limits. (See more photos)
Voting continues until 9 p.m.
