From Dubois County

Hey Reader,

We're in the home stretch of the election.

Clerk Amy Kippenbrock said she feels early voting turnout has been on track to be typical for Dubois County. She said that about half of the votes are cast during the early voting timeframe, with the rest coming on Election Day.

We will see how that lines up tomorrow at the end of the day.

Have a great day.

From Dubois County with love.

Matthew and Amy Crane
