Four voting precincts in Warren County changing locations
Published 1:00 am Sunday, November 6, 2011
Voters in four of Warren County’s 22 precincts will cast ballots in different places this year.
Bovina Baptist Church, 5293 U.S. 80, now houses the Bovina precinct after Election Day traffic concerns prompted county supervisors to move it from Bovina Elementary.
Immanuel Baptist Church, 6949 U.S. 61 South, is the new home for the Jett precinct in south Vicksburg. About 2,000 voters there had voted at Carpenters Union Hall.
Travelers Rest Church, 718 Bowmar Ave., replaces No. 7 Fire Station as one of three polling places in the central part of town. The Washington Street station and the No. 5 Station, at Vicksburg Municipal Airport, are outdoor venues and were replaced due to complaints over excessive heat during the primaries.
In north Vicksburg, the St. Aloysius precinct will vote at Spring Hill M.B. Church on Mission 66. Tight parking and space at the school prompted the switch.
