Redistricting has changed 15 precinct boundaries in Lincoln County, so about 1,700 affected voters there have been mailed new voter identification cards with their new polling places.
Lincoln County Election Board Secretary Melissa Stambaugh said the precinct boundaries change every 10 years following redistricting of congressional, legislative and county commissioner districts based on census reports to ensure populations are equal.
In Lincoln County, she said the changes affected about 1,700 of the county’s 18,444 registered voters. New voter identification cards have been mailed to those voters, who will now cast their ballots at the new polling places, including the upcoming election on Feb. 14.
Another change for Lincoln County is that Precincts 7 and 13 are combined into one location at Carney Community Center, she said, but the two precinct areas will be separated into two different lines for voters of each precinct.
Lincoln County’s precinct numbers and polling place locations are listed below:
- Precinct 1 — Stroud; Stroud City Hall, 202 W. Second.

- Precinct 22 — Prague; Prague Fire Department Training Center, 1115 Jim Thorpe Blvd.
Lincoln County Election Board officials also note that there is no longer a Precinct No. 14 at the Sac and Fox Learning Center, so those who previously voted there need to see the location of their new polling places on the new voter ID cards.
Anyone with questions about their precinct should call the Lincoln County Election Board, 258-1349, sometime before the Feb. 14 election to ensure they go to the correct polling place.
