Early Voting Starts Today!

Early voting for the November 2nd mid-term elections starts today and lasts until October 26th (excluding Sunday, October 24th). Early voting polls will be open from 8:30am to 6:00pm.

Anyone can vote early in person. Unlike absentee voting by mail, no reason is required to vote early in person. You just need to show up at your Registrar of Voters office or designated location with a current state or government issued photo ID and cast your ballot.

Voters who have no picture ID may bring a utility bill, payroll check or government document that includes their name and address, but they will have to sign an affidavit furnished by the Elections Division in order to vote.


LANO encourages all nonprofits to integrate voter engagement into their everyday activities. Remind your staff, Board, and clients to vote early or on election day!

Free Vote November 2nd posters are available at LANO offices in New Orleans, Baton Rouge, and Shreveport. Call Ashley Herad at (225) 929-5266 ext. 222, or email ashley@lano.org, to make arrangements to pick one up! Hang the poster in your lobby or other high traffic area, and encourage your community to make their voices heard on November 2nd!
