Check on Monday Jan. 4

Paris voters: absentee ballots for the Feb. 1st and Feb. 5th recall elections should be available at the Paris Town Office; call 743-2501 to be sure.

Then consider voting by absentee ballot; 4 recall questions at one time, instead of having to go out to 2 separate recall elections.

Voting absentee allows a voter the following options: (1) vote in the town office; (2) take a ballot home, think it over, mark the choices, bring it back; (3) within certain guidelines, take a ballot to - and bring it back from - an individual who is not physically able to come to the polls themselves to vote; (4) within certain guidelines, pick up a ballot and send it to an out-of-town voter who will not be able to come to the polls on the date(s) in question.
