Current recommended guidance from the Mississippi Secretary of State's Office and the CDC regarding elections processes is that polling locations housed in nursing homes and senior care facilities be relocated to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. Additionally, as a precautionary measure to further reduce the chances of individuals contracting the virus, there are some local churches that normally provide space for voting precincts that are currently closed to the public.
Therefore, due to these concerns arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Hinds County Election Commission has determined the temporary relocation of the following three (3) polling locations is necessary to ensure public health safety during the June 23, 2020 Republican 2nd Congressional District Runoff Election only:
SUPERVISOR'S DISTRICT LOCATION |
VOTING PRECINCT NUMBER |
VOTING PRECINCT CURRENT LOCATION |
VOTING PRECINCT TEMPORARY LOCATION |
---|---|---|---|
1 | 46 | Christ United Methodist Church 6000 Old Canton Road Jackson, MS 39211 |
Ascension Luther Church 6481 Old Canton Road Jackson, MS 39211 |
2 | C1 | First Baptist Church Activity Buildling 100 E. College Street Clinton, MS 39056 |
