Saline County Clerk and local Elections Official Jamie Doss said as of 5 p.m. yesterday, 5,148 Saline County residents voted early in person. Doss said her office has received an additional 1,330 ballots mail-in ballots.

Doss predicts that the overall voter turnout for the 2024 Election will be between 62% and 65%. Doss reminds the community to avoid wearing campaign materials near polling locations.

"Need to remind people to make sure that you don't have anything on your person, a slogan or a candidate's name, a shirt or something like that within 250 feet of the city-county building, and that would be the same on Election Day," Doss said.
