Route 1 residents are already voting in the 2024 presidential election.

Early voting kicked off Thursday in Maryland, where voters are also making their choices in a U.S. Senate race between former Gov. Larry Hogan and former Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks, state judges and a ballot measure that would enshrine reproductive rights in the state constitution.

Early in-person voting, which lasts through Oct. 31, can be done at the voting center at the College Park Community Center at 5051 Pierce Ave. It is open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day.

Voters can also request a mail-in ballot through Monday, Oct. 29. You do not need a reason. You can sign up to receive one online here, but they must be postmarked, put into a ballot drop box or hand-delivered by 8 p.m. on Election Day.

If you are stressed about your mail ballot, you can track whether it has been received, processed and counted online here.

If you have not yet registered to vote, you can sign up and cast your ballot right up until Election Day, including at an early voting center. You can find a helpful voters’ guide from Maryland Matters here.
