TANEY COUNTY, Mo. – Taney County officials announced they will be conducting the June 2 General Municipal Election as a Drive Thru Election to protect both the poll workers and voters during the COVID -19 pandemic. Officials ask that voters come prepared with the following: Bring a smooth surface to put your ballot on; Example, a magazine, cardboard, etc. Bring your ID: IDs will not be scanned. Judges will manually enter your information from your ID into the poll pad.

The PollPads will be sanitized for each voter. A pen to mark your ballot will be provided. The pen will be retained and sanitized for future elections. There will be a ballot box or voting machine available to drop ballots into.

Voters may bring any personal protection they feel is necessary.

“We are all working together to provide a safe environment for elections.”
