Early Voting in St. Charles County Remains Open and Uninterrupted Thursday

Oct. 31, 2024

Early voting locations in St. Charles County are open and operating as scheduled Thursday, Oct. 31. The Election Authority office was made aware late Wednesday of an attempt to obtain a temporary restraining order on early voting in the county, with a court hearing scheduled Friday, Nov. 1.

"We will follow any court order that may or may not result from the hearing on Friday," says Kurt Bahr, St. Charles County Director of Elections. "There is no injunction to stop early voting at this time, so our voting locations will be opened as originally planned Thursday."

Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft verified no-excuse absentee voting would continue to be available Thursday.
