WAKE FOREST, NC – Joyner Park Community Center (JPCC), 701 Harris Road, will serve as one of 18 early voting sites in Wake County October 15-31. During this period, any eligible Wake County voter may vote at the JPCC or any other Wake County Early Voting location.
Individual voting enclosures will be erected inside the JPCC gymnasium for Wake County voters wishing to cast their ballot ahead of the November 3 General Election. To accommodate the early voting period and allow sufficient time to set up and breakdown the voting enclosures and other related equipment, the JPCC gym and walking track will be closed from Thursday, Oct. 8, through Monday, Nov. 2.
Signage will be posted throughout the facility in the coming days to inform visitors of the scheduled closures of the gym and walking track. For more information, email PRCR Recreation Program Manager Grayson Pridgen at gpridgen@wakeforestnc.gov.
Early voting will begin Thursday, Oct. 15, and continue daily through Saturday, Oct. 31, according to the following schedule:
- Weekdays, 8 a.m.-7:30 p.m.
- Saturdays, 8 a.m.-3 p.m.
- Sundays, 1-6 p.m.
According to Wake County, lines are historically shortest on the first days of Early Voting. The busiest times are around lunchtime on weekdays, 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Saturdays, and the last three days of the Early Voting period.
