INDIANAPOLIS -- Hoosiers are set to go to the polls Tuesday to cast their votes for city and town candidates, and election officials in Marion County said they are much better prepared than they were in May.

Marion County Clerk Beth White said Tuesday's general election should go much more smoothly than May's primary, in which dozens of polling places opened late or not at all.

White said she is confident she has enough workers to get precincts running on time.

"We had a very good weekend. Our inspectors came and picked up their materials, which is an extremely good indication that they are going to show up on Tuesday," White said. "It's in their hands now. We've delivered the materials. We've done the training. We've oriented them properly. They know where they're supposed to go, and they know what time they're supposed to show up."

The deadline for absentee voting expired at noon Monday. White described the absentee vote as heavy, but lines were not long Monday morning.

White estimated that more than 10,000 ballots were mailed into her office.

Marion County has 917 precincts. As of Sunday night, White said, inspectors had not picked up information for about 40 precincts.

At the same point in May, about 400 kits still were waiting to be picked up in White's office, 6News' Norman Cox reported.

Aside from being registered, prospective voters will also need to bring a government-issued photo identification.

The Bureau of Motor Vehicles' BMV2U mobile branch was out Monday to issue driver's license renewals and ID cards required for voting.

BMV branches, which normally are closed on Monday, was scheduled to be open until 8 p.m. this Monday. On Tuesday, they will be open from 6 a.m. until 7 p.m.

Anyone with questions about the election can call the Hoosier Voter Helpline, which is staffed by members of the Secretary of State's Office from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. at 866-461-8683.
