Hoosier Access Public Service Announcement: Four Marion County Voting Precincts Moved

The Office of Corporation Counsel has announced the following last minute polling place changes due to building construction and building flood damage

Voters in precincts 28-4 and 28-5 in Warren Township will now vote at Indianapolis Public School #88, 5801 E. 16th Street, Indianapolis, IN 46218. This change was required due to construction at the Windsor Park Family Center that could have inhibited voting at that location.

Voters in precincts 19-1 and 19-2 in Wayne Township will now vote at Friendship West Side Center, 3131 W. 16th Street, Indianapolis, IN 46222. This change was required due to flooding at the Friendship Baptist Church that prevented the location from being available for the Primary Election.

The areas covered by Ward 28, Precincts 4 and 5 are roughly I-70 & Emerson south to 21st & Emerson on the West, 21st Street to the South, I-70 to the North, and the Eastern edge of the property at the Raytheon facility on the city’s Eastside (Formerly the Naval Avionics Center, or Naval Air Warfare Center) east of the intersection of 21st & Arlington running perpendicular to a point south of I-70’s right of way.

Ward 19, Precincts 1 and 2 are basically the Northern parts of the Haughville neighborhood. It runs from about the SE corner of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway property at 16th & Olin along 16th Street east of Concord St stopping short of King Ave, south to 10th Street and west along 10th Street to 10th & Olin, and north along Olin to the border of the IMS property.

Now see unlike the previous Mayoral Administration that moved around precincts hoping to throw off voters, this Administration announces its polling place changes and we’re here to let you know of the changes. And yes we realize these are mainly Democrat precincts, especially 19-1 and 19-2.
