ORANGE COUNT – It’s not likely a late surge at the polls will get the early voting numbers to equal those of two years ago, but more and more people are making their voices heard.
Orange County’s four voting sites saw another uptick as 170 voters cast their ballots Wednesday. However, 2011’s totals averaged to more than 300 voters per day with peaks at more than 500.
There’s still time to check the box with polls open through Saturday.
And, don’t go to the polls without the information. You can find stories and interviews with each of the areas candidates here. You can also find the locations and times at which you can cast your ballot here.
