Greentown Prepares for Election

   The last time there was a City Election in Greentown was 2003 because there were no contested seats in 2007.  This year there are two running for the position of Clerk-Treasurer.  They are Carolyn Johnson and Holly Hord-Melton.  The Election Board for this election is April Herglund, Larry Hinesley, and Renda Hurst.  Election Day is Tuesday, November 8.  The location will be City Hall.  Only registered voters who reside in the corporate town limits of Greentown may vote.
   For those who need to register or change their registration due to moving or change of name, the deadline is October 11.  There are a number of ways to register. 
1. Go online to www.indianavoters.in.gov 
2. Go to the Voter Registration Office in the Howard County Courthouse (Courthouse will be closed for Columbus Day, Oct. 10)
3. Obtain a form and mail it in. (Must be postmarked by Oct. 11 and if a first time voter, must include a copy of proper ID.)  If an Indiana drivers license is not available, the last 4 digits of the Social Security number may be used but a proper Indiana photo ID must be obtained by Election Day. 
4. Go to the License Branch. 
5. Forms are available from the Greentown Utility Office, 112, No. Meridian St in Greentown during their office hours, M-F 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.  If the form is filled out there by closing on Oct. 6, someone will take it to the Court House on Oct. 7.
