Sumpter Township Clerk Esther Hurst will be mailing new voter identification cards to registered voters before the upcoming Aug. 2 election.
Hurst explained to the board of trustees and audience members at the April 12 meeting that the new state redistricting map eliminated Precinct 2 in the township and that polling places for some voters would change.
“With the loss of Precinct 2-the Moose Lodge-we'll be mailing voter ID cards to all voters during the next several weeks advising them of new locations,” Hurst said.
She noted that her office is looking for election workers for the state primary election set for Aug. 2 and suggested anyone interested in working at the election polls contact her office for more information. The clerk's office can be reached by phone at (734) 461-6201.
