The books for the Saturday, March 26, election, will close on February 23, for in-person or mail voter registration. The last day for online registration will be March 5.
Allen Parish Registrar of Voters Monica F. Warren said early voting will be observed from Saturday, March 12, to Saturday, March 19, 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., excluding Sunday.
The Allen Parish School Board will have three renewals on that ballot, which would have included the Third Circuit Court of Appeals seat if more than one person had qualified. (Qualifying was observed Wednesday, January 26, through Friday, January 28. Now this will not be confirmed until seven days after qualifying ends for the seat. If by Monday, February 7, no one challenges the process, then Gary Ortego will be named the appellate judge for the Third Circuit Court of Appeals in Lake Charles.)
