Yesterday Andi L. Matheu, Registrar of Voters in Tangipahoa Parish reported that while there are only 2 items on the ballot, the Educational Facilities Improvement District Proposition (parish-wide) and the Hammond Downtown Development District Proposition (Millage Renewal) have both brought out a steady run of voters.
As of 04/13/2021, Tangipahoa had received 1,207 mail ballots and 983 in-person early voters for a total of 1,822 voters so far for this April election. 26% of mail ballots that were sent have been returned (the deadline to return your mail ballot is 4:30 PM on Friday, 04/23/2021) and a little over 2% of our total registered voters have turned out so far.
Voters are encouraged to visit www.TangiVotes.com to locate parish early voting locations, Election Day voting site, or view their sample ballot.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, our offices will be sanitizing designated areas and wiping down voting machines between each voter. Hand sanitizer will be provided to voters and masks are recommended, although not required.
In addition to a Louisiana driver’s license, a Louisiana Special ID or a generally recognized ID with picture and signature, voters may use a digital license via LA Wallet.
