Sample Ballots Mailed
October 12, 2010
Sample ballots for the upcoming November 2 General Election have been mailed to Escambia County voters, according to Supervisor of Elections David Stafford.
The sample ballot includes an image of both sides of the ballot, the voter’s polling location, instructions on marking their ballot, and information on early voting, absentee voting, and voting at the polls on Election Day. A sample ballot is also available at EscambiaVotes.com.
Escambia County voters have three different ways to cast their ballot:
BY MAIL: Voters may vote by mail via an absentee ballot by contacting the Elections Office by mail, phone (850-595-3900), e-mail (absentee@escambiavotes.com), fax (850-595-3914), or using the online form at EscambiaVotes.com. Absentee requests must include the voter’s date of birth and address, and must be received no later than Wednesday, October 27th. Voted ballots must be received in the Elections Office by 7:00 p.m. on Election Day. Absentee voters may now track their ballot status by clicking the Track My Ballot link on EscambiaVotes.com.

>>> Why would the Supervisor of elections chose to have two elections in Century instead of one?? This makes Absolutely No sense!! Taxpayers are having to support the cost of two elections instead of one which should be Nov 2 Only!
The Town of Century’s charter specifies when elections are to occur; the dates are not picked by the Supervisor of Elections. The Supervisor of Elections simply manages and conducts the elections for the town.
Here is an older article that explains some of the dates specified by the town:

If you want to encourage a strong voter turnout .,, it makes sense to have only one election.
