LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – Pulaski County Clerk Terri Hollingsworth wants residents to be ready on Feb. 20 when early voting begins.

Ballots are unique to the voter’s address. Voters will be able to select Democrat, Republican, or nonpartisan ballots for the judicial election.

Hollingsworth said now is a good time to review ballots and take time to research candidates.

“We are one of 16 states with an open primary allowing voters to vote in any one regardless of their political affiliation,” Hollingsworth said. “Today is a good day to review your sample ballot, research the candidates, and plan when and where you will early vote.”
