EARLY VOTING IS STILL TAKING PLACE! Students from the Universities at Shady Grove are encouraged to visit an early voting location until November 1st until 8PM. If you or anyone you know needs help voting there are plenty of resources that can help you! There are voting instructions, ballots and help at every poll location. Voting instructions are available in French, Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese. Ballots and instructions are available in Spanish. Electronic ballots are available at all polls in large print and audio format in English and Spanish.

If you visit Maryland’s State Board of Elections website (www.elections.maryland.gov), you can register to vote early. You can also download registration or an absentee ballot application. If you’re uncertain about your polling place or registration, you can verify those and find all of the candidate names. You can also check all the contributions to campaigns or candidates.

These convenient locations and times are available for early voters in the Montgomery College region.

When we consider who we are going to vote for political positions, we must contemplate what qualifications they have. How do their experience prepare them to hold the position? There are decisions that are going to be made regarding the state budget in education and transportation. Environmental and discrimination challenges must be addressed by the candidates in Montgomery County. Health care challenges are also something that must be considered.

General Elections are taking place on Tuesday, November 6th, 2018. The polls are open from 7AM-8PM.
