Early voting for the November 3 general election begins Monday, October 19, in Palm Beach County. Voters can cast a ballot at any of the 28 early voting locations, which will be open daily from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. through Sunday, November 1, according to the office of Elections Supervisor Wendy Sartory-Link.
Wait times and site details are posted at VotePalmBeach.gov, where voters can also reserve a specific check-in time. The appointment program is optional, but elections officials say it can help people avoid long lines.
