NC State students have access to voter resources, such as shuttles from Talley Student Union and Centennial Campus to the Business Service Office on Western Boulevard, North Carolina State Campus' sole early voting site.

as well as stamps for absentee ballots, general election information, and more.

To wrap up National Hispanic Heritage Month, NC State Campus celebrated Fiesta Latina on October 9th courtesy of the Association of Latino Professionals for America, also known as ALPHA, in collaboration with Poole Student Affairs and Advocacy.

But with rising concerns over the new early voting site, the local Raleigh community is seeking to provide several options to ensure students and local residents have maximum opportunity to cast their ballot.

Pack the Polls, a nonpartisan voting coalition at NC State, is offering a shuttle service that will provide rides for students from Talley Student Union and Centennial Campus to the new early voting site.

The service will run from Wednesday, October 21st to Saturday, October 31st from 9:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. on weekdays, with reduced hours over the weekend.

Pack the Polls is conducting multiple events this month to provide education and resources for the upcoming election.
