Cascade, Idaho – Voters in the Nov. 8, 2022 general election can expect to see a correction on the ballot when they go to the polls. “We were made aware that the term for the District 3 Valley County Commissioner race included a misprint,” says Doug Miller, Valley County Clerk. “The ballot notes a term of four years when that term should be two years.”

The Clerk’s Office verified with the Idaho Secretary of State that the misprint does not invalidate the ballot and a simple correction can be made for election day. Voters can expect to see a one-line strikethrough of the four-year term and a handwritten two-year term added next to the District 3 candidates. Absentee ballots that have already been mailed will not include the correction, but those ballots are still valid. Any absentee ballots requested after Oct. 26, 2022 will include the correction. 

To vote in the Nov. election, you may request an absentee ballot by Oct. 28, vote early at the Valley County Clerk’s office until Nov. 4, or vote in person at your polling location on Nov. 8. Absentee ballots must be received Nov. 8, 2022 at 8 p.m. Ballots may be mailed or dropped off at the Valley County Clerk’s office or the McCall Annex. There will also be designated absentee ballot boxes at each polling location on election day only. 

In-person voting will also take place at polling locations across the county from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Nov. 8. For those in the Alpha, Cascade, and West Mountain Precincts, voting will take place at the American Legion Hall located at 105 E. Mill St. in Cascade. For those in the Donnelly and Rosebery precincts, voting will take place at the Donnelly Bible Church at 159 FW Gestrin Street in Donnelly. For those in the McCall and Payette precincts, voting will take place at Idaho First Bank located at 475 Deinhard Ln. in McCall.
