General Election Information

Elections are how we hold our elected officials accountable. For this reason, educators must be involved.

Election Day:

You can vote at your poll on Election Day, November 6 from 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Find your polling place at Arkansas Voter View.

Bring your ID:

In March 2017, Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson signed into law a bill requiring voters to present photo identification at the polls. Under this law, a voter who does not possess the required form of identification may cast a provisional ballot after signing a sworn statement attesting to his or her identity.

Vote Early:

During the preferential primary early voting is available October 22nd, through November 5. Voting locations are open between the hours of 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. Early voting ends at 5 p.m. on the Monday before the election. Off-site early voting hours may vary by county; watch your local newspaper or contact your county clerk for information.

You can find more information about elections in Arkansas at the Secretary of State’s website.
