Advice from Kelly Pallante, county elections board director:

Decide how you will vote before you enter the voting booth to reduce long voting times and lines.

Vote at times other than the busiest times, 4:30 to 7:30 p.m., if possible.

Be aware that there will be eight sets of presidential candidates plus write-ins on the ballot and be prepared to spend time looking through the list to find your choice. Candidates will be in a different order depending on the polling place where you vote.
