Early voting lines much of the day as record turn out continues.

Cumberland County election coordinator Jill Davis says they are almost constantly busy and lines to early vote continue during much of the day as locals want to get their votes cast.

According to Davis, as of 10 AM on Wednesday October 26 almost 9000 ballots have been cast and that number includes some 662 absentee ballots.  City voters are also turning out with 1293 votes cast by voters inside the city limits meaning a big turn out will decide the city council race as well.

Lines to early vote aren't always out the front door of the Milo Lemert building 
but a record number of votes continue to be cast.
