The city of Gainesville At-Large 1 seat and District 1 seat are open.  Carpenter says even if you have already registered, you should check to make sure all your information is accurate because of the residency restrictions on the district election.

Today is also the last day to register a party affiliation to vote in the Republican Presidential Preference Primary. All three elections will take place January 31st, and Carpenter says involving the primary race with the city election may bring more voters to the polls.
