Amador County – Amador County Registrar of Voters Sheldon Johnson reminded voters Tuesday they should check their sample ballot for the location of their polling places, as polling locations have been consolidated, but only for the January 4th special election, to fill the District 1 position of the late State Senator Dave Cox. Candidates are Republican Ted Gaines and Democrat Ken Cooley. The voting places are Jackson City Hall, Evalyn Bishop Hall, Sutter Creek Auditorium, New Life Christian Center in Pine Grove, Plymouth City Hall, Lockwood Fire House in Volcano, and Mace Meadow Country Club in Pioneer. Johnson noted that “with the election being held in January and the uncertainty about weather conditions, voters might want to consider voting by mail.” Vote-by-mail applications forms are on sample ballots, or a written request may be submitted. The last day to apply by mail is December 28th, but walk-in applications can be made at the registrar’s office until election day. Polls are open 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday, January 4th.
