(KAIR)--Advance voting is underway for the August 6 Primary Election, with Atchison County voters also receiving opportunities to vote, in person, remotely.

According to a release from Atchison County Clerk Michelle Phillips, Advance In Person Voting is underway in her office, at the Atchison County Courthouse. Ballots can be cast there, as of this past Monday, from 8 to 5 weekdays until 12 noon Monday, August 5.
Advance voting by mail is also underway.

Additionally, Phillips says two remote, in person voting locations will be open Thursday, with the first at the Effingham Municipal Building, from 9:30 to 11:30; and the Arrington Community Building, from 1 until 3:00.

Two remote voting locations are also planned for Friday, including Atchison Senior Village, from 10 to 11:00, and the Dooley Center, in Atchison, from 2 until 4:00.

State offices to be decided by primary ballot voters include the 3-way Republican race for State Senate, as longtime, rural Hiawatha incumbent Dennis Pyle is challenged by Dr. John Eplee, of Atchison, and Craig Bowser, of Holton.

Locally, in Atchison County, one contested Republican race, that for Atchison County Sheriff, will be decided as incumbent Jack Laurie is challenged by Adam Potts.
