Early voting in person began Tuesday with no complications. The complications came earlier with the discovery that two races were omitted from the Democratic Party ballot. By 3 p.m. on the first day of early voting in person, 59 Republican ballots were cast and 10 Democratic ballots were cast. Early voting in person continues through Friday, Feb. 26. See the Feb. 18 edition of the Optic-Herald for more information.
