Due to the increasing number of registered voters, we have made the decision to move the polling location for the Southwest Marion precinct from the County Courthouse to the First Christian Church, 407 W Broadway Street, Bolivar. In an effort to improve the voter experience, we have hopefully found facilities that are larger in capacity to accommodate the larger number of voters as well as better parking options.
