Early voting hours are Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. and Saturdays, 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. A new state law limits early voting to eight hours per weekday and eight hours total per weekend - either Saturday, Sunday, or a combination of the two days. The law now excludes early voting the day before the election.
