The Barton County Clerk’s Office will be open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday to accommodate walk-in advance voting for anyone who wishes to cast their ballots in advance of the Tuesday general election, Barton County Election Officer Donna Zimmerman said.   
 The Election Office is located on the second floor of the courthouse in room 202.
In addition to the Saturday option, voters can also come to the office from 8 a.m. until noon Monday for advance voting. Tuesday is the deadline for sick/disabled/illiterate voters to apply for an advanced voting ballot.
All advanced ballots must be returned to the County Clerk’s Office by 7 p.m., Tuesday.  
Federal election law requires voters to provide identification. And Zimmerman reminds residents to bring IDs with them when they come to vote.
