In addition to voting in person on election day, voters can also vote in person prior to election day beginning October 13th, 2020 and this will run until November 2nd, 2020. The early voting will take place at the Harlan County Clerks Office in the Harlan Court House.

Early In-Person voting was highly utilized in the Primary Election and we encourage Harlan County Voters to utilize this option again. If you are coming to Harlan for business at the Court House or coming to Harlan for any other reason (doctors' appointments, paying bills, grocery shopping, etc...) feel free to come by the Courthouse to vote.

As always, if you have any questions please contact our office.
