Polling Locations
The Spencer County Election Board has recently adopted a vote center plan for Spencer County. Use of vote centers means that eligible voters are not required to go to a poll in their precinct, but can cast their vote at ANY of the available vote centers. Please note that there will not be a polling center in every precinct. Click here for a list of Spencer County Voting Center Locations.
Voter Registration
To register, fill out and print the registration form and then return it to the voter registration office located in the County Clerk’s Office at the courthouse in Rockport.
