Candidates might need to update voter info

The Quay County Clerk’s Office stated in a recent news release that potential candidates for local offices in the Nov. 7 election will have to update their voter-registration information, if necessary, by Aug. 9 before filing for candidacy later this month.

The office stated that potential candidates cannot make changes to their voter-registration affidavits after the state on Aug. 9 issues its proclamation that calls for a November election.

Any prospective candidates with questions should call the office at (575) 461-0510.

The official filing date for the November election is Aug. 29 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and only on that day at the clerk’s office.
