Even though Election Day is still a month away, early voting has begun and  Bernalillo County voters can start casting ballots as soon as possible as next week..

Early voting will be available at the County Clerk’s Annex, 1500 Lomas Blvd NW, Suite A, from Tuesday Oct. 8 through Nov. 2.

Beginning Oct. 19, early voting — with same-day registration —  will be expanded to 20 sites across the county. Most will be open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday. The sites will also be open on Election Day, Nov. 5.
